craig rohner with nils johnson spires collection major brands

Mt Brave Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder 2008 100% Cabernet.. soft mocha on the front.. loads of fruit tannin that gives way to good solid fruit.. long finish.

Chateau Les Cadrans de Lassegue Saint Emillon Grand Cru 2008  surprisingly sweet nose.. soft tannins and soft body.. could use a little more body and depth

Lassegue Grand Cru 2006. would almost guess this for a rhone wine.. iodine nose a touch of french stink. hoping for more structure to it..but lots of good fruit

Chateau Vignot Saint Emilon Grand Cru 2006 a bit of french stink.. a bit of heat from alcohol... another wine that seemed to be missing some depth on the middle.

Anakota Knight Valley Helena Montana 2008.. not a subtle wine.. lots of cassis and cocoa.. rich on the palate.. long pretty finish
