Golden Barrel and Avanti Imports

Nobillisima Pinot Grigio 2007 from the Venezia...i am skeptical when people tell me a story like this has been held only in Italy and just now being released to the American market but in this case the wine is really good..lots of creamy texture for a PG and soft lush finish.

Tapestry Unoaked Chardonnay 2008 ...keeping with the unoaked new tradition of Australia and New Zealand.. light somewhat creamy but little ml and not very interesting really.

Jackson Estate Pinot Noir New Zealand 200? dark garnet color, cranberry and tea on the nose, somewhat sweet fruit on the finish with a lot of astringency.

Tapestry Bakers Gully SHiraz 06 there seems to be a glut of Bakers gully's around and the gentleman tried to explain but I think i hadnt had enough coffee.. anyway sweet nose and almost cotton candy flavors, ligher style of shiraz but too sweet for me.
