- Ken Wright Cellars, 'Guadalupe', Pinot Noir, 2007

But that was likely an anomaly, and/or poor storage on the ... - Grochau Cellars, Toute de Suite, Pinot Nor, 2007

The mouthfeel is medium bodied, very dry, with youthful moderate tannins, ... - Re: Domaine Beau Mistral, Cuvee Tamara Gail, Cotes du Rhone, 2005
Mushroom and manure? Yup, sound awful unless you know exactly what you mean, then it sounds great. - Re: Left Coast Cellars, 'Cali's Cuvee', Pinot Noir, 2004
