Heathen83's Review:

Smoky taste and smell. Fairly astringent with a bitter, walnut-like aftertaste.

Heathen83's Review:

Fiarly tart with floral and coffee notes.

Heathen83's Review:

Fairly fruity. Could also taste vanilla and butterscotch

Heathen83's Review:

Heavily oaked yet mildly tannic. Not quite as smooth as the 2004 vintage, but well balanced and delightful in its own right. Hints of black and red fruit in the mouth.

Heathen83's Review:

Crisp and refreshing with balanced acid and slightly sweet. Fruity and earthy (or herbaceous) on the nose and mouth. A great change from California whites. Goes well with most light food, fish, or light desserts. Also see Acohn's review.

Heathen83's Review:

One of the few ports I've had that I really enjoyed. I find that many ports have a raisiny smell and taste. This does not. It was also smooth for the high alcohol content.

Heathen83's Review:

Herby on the nose, with red fruit on the tongue.

Heathen83's Review:

My favorite Rioja thus far.

Heathen83's Review:

Very smooth, easy to drink pinot with very nuanced red and black fruit.

Heathen83's Review:

Excellent. Balanced tannins, with red and black fruit. Good with food with strong taste or alot of spice (I had it while over a friend's for home-cooked Thai) or alone if like wines with a strong and full taste.
