I primarily noticed the Cherry and fruit in the Aroma and it followed through with a pleasent fruity taste. I also noticed a spice in the aroma but couldn't pinpoint it.

2003 Silverado
Merlot

RATED: 05/25/2008 |

| COMMENTS: |
First time back to Silverado Merlot in about 10 years. Smooth and fruit forward as rememebered. Just a hint of mineral tones coming up, maybe more to come in time. Not as stellar as I remembered, but very good. Not a great value at $27.

2006 Orin Swift
-
The Prisoner
(USA / California / Napa)
|
ALCOHOL: 15.2%
RATED: 03/23/2008 |
|
|
|
| COMMENTS: |
Deep purplish ruby. The nose is loaded with ripe blackburries, blueburries, dark cherries, adn some hints of tobacco and ceder. Full-bodied and intense on the palate, almost to the point of decadent. Well-balanced. I normally don't like this bold and almost in-your-face type of wine but this one is very satisfying.

2006 Espelt
- Saulo
-
carinena
(Spain / Catalunya / Ampurdan-Costa Brava)
|
ALCOHOL: 13.5%
RATED: 03/27/2008 |
|
|
|
| COMMENTS: |
The Saulo (the name of the region's decomposed granite) is a blend of garnacha and carinena and like last year the '07 over delivers for the price. The nose is a mix of fresh mineral floral notes with bits of animal. The entry is fresh with fragrant raspberry fruit and earthy notes to keep it vibrant and dry. Great energy and vitality makes this a fine everyday red for the savvy sipper. Grilled anything will work here. Great value. Emporda sits within the Costa Brava region at the north-eastern extremity of Spain. Close to the French border and the Mediterranean, the area was a favourite of Salvador Dali and seems a perfect fit for this modern Catalan winery.

| COMMENTS: |
This was actually the first of three wines on the night and wound up being the best. This wine has great flavor and a smooth balance. This wine has a great nose that really gets you intrigued into getting it onto your pallet without delay. This was the first time for me and my friends for a wine from this vineyard and we are very excited about trying even more. It was a 2003 vintage and it appears leaving it in the barrel a little longer has paid off. Outstanding wine, get this one while it lasts. Grape Variety: 90% Cabernet Sauvignon 6% Malbec, 4% Petite Verdot
Appellation: Paso Robles
Analysis: Alcohol: 14.5% pH: 3.59 TA: .72 g/100ml RS: 0.25%
Harvest Dates: 9/23/03 to 10/30/03 Six vineyards harvested
Barrel Aging: 20 months 20% new oak barrels French, American and Hungarian
