As is obvious, I have a certain fondness for Ridge Vineyards. | WINE TASTING GUY MAY 4, 2008 Day in Napa then had a Rose' made from Cab Franc before moving on to the reds. Following the Cab I had a Petit Sirah and finished with an old vine Zin PORT that I REALLY enjoyed. The Zin was blended with about 7-8% Petit Sirah & a touch (about 1%) of Cab. tried Napa Wine Co's own Cab, an older vintage, from 1999. Nice wines. | WINE TASTING GUY APRIL 30, 2008 Polaner tasting standouts Moving to the Rhone valley in France I tried some wines from Eric Texier. Next to Texier was Domaine Franck Peillot from the Bugey region of France (a place I had never previously heard of). wine I really loved and found quite unique was the 2005 Domaine de Roally Vire'-Clesse' from the Macconnais, France. don't know. | EAST VILLAGE WINE GEEK AUGUST 2, 2008 1999 ORLANDI CONTUCCI PONNO LIBURNIO After some testing and some clone experimentation she decided to not only plant Montepulciano but Malbec, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot; all varietals from in and around the Bordeaux region. Oh and we can't forget good ol' cab franc. Abruzzo is the land of Montepulciano. Nice and confusing. Cheer | | | | | | | | |
