Some interesting sparkling and still wine from glazer and this supplier
Roederer Estate Anderson valley nv made without using pinot meunier.. an earthy pungent nose, green apples and a little toast... nice long finish but it was my first wine of the day. prett
roederer estate brut premier nv or baby cristal...chard/pinot noir/pinot meunier blend. yeasty nose that follows to the toasty finish. lemon and citrus
domaine ott domanier rose 2007 the second label for domaine ott...this rose is one of the best in the world..at least according to the wine spectator.. from the south of france...earthy nose...french strawberries?? oui...
delas cotes du rhone espirit 2006 pretty lavender and pepper nose. juicy and a little earthy in the finish... would like to have seen a little more of the pepper on the palate but it wasnt green at all like some cotes tend to.
marques de murrietta 2004 tinto reserva this wine has been out of the market for 3 years for contractual reasons. pretty cedar nose which is not typical for rioja coffee color..22 months in oak...juicy..definite new world style
murrietta Castillo Y gay Gran Reserva Especial as they were sure to point out to me it is pronounced guy not gay...a quick finish not a lot of fruit and heavy...not very gay at all
marques de murrietta 2004 Dalmau Tinto Reserva named for the owner of Murrietta... this is only the 3rd or so release of this wine.Tempranillo, cabernet and graziano. all french oak..beautiful cab nose.. rich deep color... and the cab to me was the outstanding feature of this blend... this is probably one of the finest wines I have tried since I had a chance to try the ZD Abacus a year back...not as expensive as that but at $170 it would be close
