| 3-15-2008 By: winewomenonline | Hamburg Twp. MI. | 2002 | Ridge | Zinfandel (Late Harvest) | $24.99 | Pagani Ranch -- Sonoma Valley 89% Zin, 7% Alicante Bouschet, 4% Petite Syrah. A full bodied layered fruit cake in a bottle. Sweet yet balanced with the correct amount of warmth, reduced fruits, dark cherry, berry fruit, jammy, mince and slight Port characteristics. The red version of Sauterne? Perhaps. It is a gem of a dessert wine and went really well with truffles on a cold March night. |
| 3-14-2008 By: Boss Lady | Our House, USA | 2005 | Paul Zinck, Vin d'Alsace | Pinot Gris | $10.00 | A clean herbaceous nose, acidic and quite sweet for a Pinot Gris. This had almost a Riesling character to it. Nice and very ripe apple fruit. For the price point, it is excellent. This wine would pair very well with white meat, fish or on its own. |
| 9-6-2008 By: Boss Lady | Fall hiking (Michigan) | 2005 | Plan Pegau | Grenache, Syrah, Carignan | $18.00 | This wine knows where it wants to go. Definitely a Syrah presence, bright and complete fruit, fresh. It has roots and is grounded. A great value for the money. |
| 9-6-2008 By: Boss Lady | Michigan | 2005 | Block 13 | Cabernet | $18.00 | Somewhat typical of a Cali Cabernet, heavy, robust, a bit over-powering at %14.5. Almost zin-like. White pepper, glyceral, chocolate layers, tootsie roll, can stand on its own, not meal worthy. |
