Penfolds

Koonunga Hill Seventy Six Shiraz Cabernet 2010

Great to see the old retro Penfolds label commemorating the first Koonunga Hill in 1976. Koonunga Hill used to be Penfolds Entry Level Red and was remarkable how it to could be cellared. The Entry Level is now Rawsons Retreat. Shiraz dominant from the excellent 2010 vintage. Wonderful berry fruit with a touch of Liquorice. Ridiculously good value at $16.99 when I bought it in 2013. At least another 5 years plus of good drinking. — 7 years ago

Winter retreat bottle #2. Getting better quality now. Really big bottle though. I wouldn't drink this on its own. Steak or pizza required. — 9 years ago

Pedroncelli

Bushnell Vineyard Zinfandel 2012

Nose Is fruit forward, a bit of oak and signs of spice. Blackberry and current are immediate flavors but they actually retreat pretty quickly. Tannins are elevated and start from the beginning. I actually think it mutes the fruit flavors a bit. There is some spice on the finish. It's medium to mild and does linger, but I would have liked it to be more predominant. My expectations were a little high being a wine from Dry Creek and quality reviews are abundant. This is a quality wine, enjoyable for tannin lovers but is just too limited when it comes to spice, oak which are great Zin characteristics. — 9 years ago

Penfolds

Rawson's Retreat Semillon Chardonnay 2006

What can you say about a penfolds. As I have said before. Not a big chard fan. But the Aussie version isn’t bad. Good structure still for a 2006. Even some minerality. Homemade andouille sausage with potatoes and garden peppers went well — 7 years ago

Carter Cellars

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

@David L @Carl Fischer @Ron R @Joe Lucca @Kirk Alexander Christine & I had dinner with my buddy Kirk and his beatific wife Veronica. I uncorked this one since it had been such a reliable pour the last time I opened it. However, in New York it had disappointed all of us. I am back to being disappointed. This is the type of bottle that you have to open by itself and not showcase it against any other as it will swiftly retreat into the shadows. Light on the palate, super short finish. This bottle came in dead last tonight. I can't believe the other that I opened impressed me that much that night. I don't do this often but I will knock it down to an 8.9. — 8 years ago
