Jackson Estate Sauv Blanc..06 more melon and fig than cat pee on the nose and much softer in the palate..very nice. i had once heard that cat pee or gooseberry was a sign of under ripe...dont know if thats true or just , pardon the expression, sour grapes.
Jackson Grey Ghost Sauv Blanc 2006 single vineyard...and total grapefruit, all it was missing was the pulp.
Jackson Chardonnay Shelter Belt 2005 bright fruit, almost tropical for a cool climate..lots of acidity..good food wine.
Chateau Bellevue Bordeaux 2005 65% merlot cab franc and cab. i have cellar nose, dont know if i meant to write cedar or that it smelled dank... but had a nice cherry finish..some tobacco...revisited this two days later and still holding up but the tannin was seeming a llittle more noticeable.
Axis 2005 meritage Oakville dark garnet with an interesting nose of popcorn....going down it stays on the mid palate and not much more...very much one note..revisited it also a few days later and it had softened a bit but not enough to make it enjoyable for me. sorry doug.
