Fosters main concern here is Beringer , Chateau St Jean
Stags Leap Petite Sirah Napa 2005 dark purple...would have like to see more fruit..very tight..that seemed to be the theme of most of the high end wines tasted ...needs time to air out
Souverain Sauv Blanc 2006 Alexander Valley...grassy, grassy and then grassier
Beringer Private Reserve 2005 lots of oak and tannin...more fruit would be nice but by late this afternoon it should be tasting very well
Beringer Knight Valley 2006..a earthy, herbal nose, light, juicy and consistent
Chateau St Jean Cinq Cepages 2005...purple in color, surprisingly light in tannis but they may still be sleeping...elegant...maybe
Penfolds Club Tawny...NV .. nice almond and biscotti flavors...soft viscousity..pretty finish
Penfolds RWT Shiraz 2005 wow..a great shiraz that is neither rhone nor australia..not overly oaky, and as with all the others it could use some decanting time but truly an elegant wine...unfortunately it has almost doubled in price because of Fosters concern with pricing overseas...go figure.
