carey with appellations

spann "betsy backacher" white 2009 white blend of semillon and chardonnay, round from the sem and a little tropical fruit but overall not very interesting for the money

spann "betsy backacher" red 2008 interesting spicy nose, some pepper and spice on the palate,, starts a little green but that goes away quickly...

Elizabeth Spencer Syrah 2006 Sonoma... strange wine with welch grape fruit overtones on the palate... some heat on the finish... expected way more.


also tried from Missouri Bev
a sparkling malbec that reminded me of a sparkling shiraz... lots of strange texture and weird tannin that sparkled...not a fan
