2009 educated guess cabernet sauvignon
Pretty standard stuff for a cab sauv. For a $16 wine it was not anything special...prolly not a rebuy for me. ? Certainly not a terrible wine, just nothing special.

Curtis 2008 mourvedre blended especially for julio's liquors in westborow mass.
So, I have a special attraction to this wine, but having said that,,,it was a very good wine. A gift from my sister in massachusetts, this turned out to be a nice surprise. Good and fruity with nice flavors throughout with a decent finish also. I'm hoping to be able to get more of this, depending on price....
2007 starry night zinfandel
The label boasts blackberries and cherries.....not to this nose or the one across from me.......this is VERY vegetal. Green pepper instead of the spicy black I was expecting....I think disjointed is a good word to describe this wine. I've got two bottles left, and not exactly sure what i'm going to do with them.

2007 humanitas cabernet franc dry creek valley.(schlumberger)
A friend brought this over and all I can say is wow, wow, wow.........Huge nose with bright fruit, good flavors on the mid-pallette and an absolutely huge finish that lasted at least 90 seconds. Now the downside is you may only be able to get this wine from the winery itself ( michael schlumberger) it lists for around $40 but my friend says you can get it cheaper from the wine club. Did I mention this was an outstanding wine, because it was! I'm so very thank-ful some of my friends can afford better wine than I...
2005 oakville cabernet sauvignon
First of all, let me say, I paid about 30 dollars for this, and if you had to buy it today it's around 70 bucks. This was a very good bottle of wine with good fruit and flavors and nose. I don't think I would pay $70 for this, but at 30 bucks, not a problem. Overall, very happy with this bottle.
