Nothing overdone here." 91 points - Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 08 "The purple-colored 2006 Mas dEn Compte Tinto, a blend of 50% Garnacha, 40% Carinena, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, was aged for 14 months in new French and American oak.

The regionâs first grapes were planted in 1779 by Franciscan missionaries and today are home to the third highest concentration of wineries in the United States.

Emphasis is placed on making Bordeaux-style blends and single varietals, combining Old World tradition with New World techniques.

$ 37.95The nose is outstanding! 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot (476 Case Production). With plum, black cherry, sweet tobacco and prune make this a full complete mouth feel. The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness and purity of fruit, round tannin and balanced acidity. The wines were basket Pressed and barrel aged for roughly six months prior to blending. Once blended the wines were returned to barrel and aged for an additional 12 months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered in May 2008 in 100% French Oak. 60% New French/40% once used. The vineyard was established in 1999, when Jack and Robyn Messina purchased the land with their sights set on making olive oil. They quickly decided to diversify and plant grapes as well. The first vines were planted later in 1999. Jada Vineyard lies in the hills of the Santa Lucia Coastal Range west of Paso Robles. A low spot (1,700 ft) in the range directly west of the vineyard funnels cool coastal air from the Pacific Ocean (approx. 20 miles) through the corridor commonly referred to as the Templeton Gap. As the Messinaâs embarked upon their first wine with Scott Hawley in 2005, the idea for creating a winemaking facility and tasting room on site began to flow. The old barn on the property lent itself perfectly to a gravity flow operation. Jada Vineyard grows and crafts Bordeaux and Rhône blends from our estate vineyard on Paso Roblesâ Westside.

$ 37.98Gap’s Crown vineyard sits high up on the slopes of the Petaluma Gap, where cool ocean breezes blow inland from the Pacific to create a terrific climate for growing Pinot Noir. Roessler harvests a classic combination of clones from different sections of the vineyard, with the fruit character of Dijon 667 and the structure and depth of Dijon 115 coming together in a complex expression of the site. Recently rated a whopping 96 points by Pinot Report, California's foremost authority on Pinot Noir. Tasting note: Medium ruby color; deep, complex black cherry and earthy aromas; deep, lush black cherry flavors with earthy forest floor notes, silky texture, sweet oak; good structure and balance; long finish. Lush and complex Pinot with great structure-delicious now but needs time to open up. 238 cases made.
2003 Chateau Fleur de Bouard (Lalande de Pomerol)
$ 37.99" Loads of meat, spice, berry and black currant on the nose, with a hint of vanilla. Full-bodied, with solid fruit, mineral-coated tannins and an intense finish. Best after 2007. 3,750 cases made." 90 points - Wine Spectator, March 31, 2006 "The savory, dense ruby/plum/purple-colored 2003 La Fleur de Bouard reveals good density, tannin and structure, plenty of broad, sweet flavors and excellent definition as well as length. It is culled from specific parcels and vinified in tiny, squat stainless steel and oak fermenters. It receives the full Burgundy treatment of malolactic in barrel and aging sur-lie. It is also bottled (unfined and unfiltered) much later than La Fleur de Bouard (usually 33 months following the vintage). Production for the luxury wine is tiny, 250 cases versus nearly 6,000 cases of La Fleur. Anticipated Maturity: now-2016." 89 points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate #164 (APR 2006)
Every once in a while a very special deal comes along, and this is one of them. The Yarra Yering 2005 Pinot Noir is a wine of exceptional quality and complexity. Like many other wineries, the economic climate has slowed sales to a point where top-flight wines are now becoming more readily available at a reduced price. This makes for outstanding deals for the consumer. This is one such wine. In 1969, after nearly fifty years of dormant wine making, Dr. Bailey Carrodus finished a long search in Victoria’s Yarra Valley for the perfect vineyard site, planting 12 hectacres of vines at the foot of the Warramate Hills. With a degree in botany, another in winemaking and a doctorate earned at Oxford for research into plant physiology, combined with a passion for great wine and a fiercely independent mind, Dr. Carrodus began producing some of the most highly acclaimed wines in the area. Produced from what are amongst the oldest Pinot Noir vines in the Yarra Valley, this wine has developed an underground following over its existence that is beginning to be recognized as standing alongside the, historically, more awarded wines from the estate. Deviating from current oenological trend and fashion, the fruit is largely handled in its usual manner, favoring partial crushing and a short cuvaison as integral tools in the preservation and expression of vineyard elements in concert with its startling varietal character. Aristocratic, fragrant, intensely perfumed, voluptuous, sweet strawberry/plum richness, anise, beetroot, silky in texture, richness, round, soft and mouth-filling to the end. James Halladay - 94 Points Deeply coloured; rich, plush and mouth-coating, with deep, sweet, plum fruit which takes you to the edge of dry red, but doesn't go over; very good fruit, oak and tannin balance; heroic pinot. Cork. Stephen Tanzer - 92 Points Deep red. Impressively complex nose combines fresh and dried red berry aromas with fresh meat and forest floor nuances; this could pass for a Gevrey-Chambertin. Concentrated raspberry and blackberry flavors are complicated by bitter amaro and cherry skin notes and sweetened by floral pastille. Firms up on the chewy finish, which features an intriguing mineral quality and excellent persistence. Robert Parker - 91 Points Dark ruby-colored, it exhibits aromas of pain grille, scorched earth, meat, black cherry, and black raspberry. Full-bodied, mouth-filling and ripe, this uniquely-styled Pinot Noir has layers of sweet fruit, 6-8 years of aging potential, and a long finish. It could easily masquerade as a Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru (from a top producer).
