JK WINES WITH HOYT OGILVIE

jk wines are mostly italian in nature but they do have some other things

Baracchi Trebbiano 2006 a straw gold color, nice legs, very round in the mouth with long finish. some minerality but not overly noticed. from sitting on the lees it picks up the round flavors. my problem is trebbiano a grape not known for exciting wines to come in around $30 will try it though..

Basracchi Merlot 2006 nice color but unfortunately the bottle was just a touch corked, as in just the slightest part of the corked continuim.

Dominque Pabiot Pouilly Fume 2007 sauv blanc from loire...very nice. bright color, lovely acidity with herbacious in a good way through out.

Bassetti Vineyards Syrah Paso Robles 2004 fruity nose with just a touch of green on the back...juicy on the palate with lots of black fruit. fun wine but cheesy label. very california in style.
