Greg's Wine Preferences
I was first introduced to wine and the appreciation of a good bottle of wine back in the 70s when I started playing professional golf in Europe. I would frequently enjoy a bottle of wine with dinner and since I was playing a great deal of golf in France at the time, we favored French wine. While in Australia, I did try many Aussie wines, but they were not nearly as popular as they are today. I drank Californian wine very infrequently, as I was not a regular in the States. Now, however, it seems all I drink are varietals from Australia or California, as I tend to enjoy their qualities better than wines from other countries. One of my favorite wines is the Australian Reserve Shiraz. It has such a deep, intense flavor, filled with tannins that are pronounced but not overbearing, and a hint of blueberry. Zinfandel is also a personal favorite, and the new Lake County Zinfandel has the spicy, red fruit character style that I particularly enjoy.

Color is an obnoxiously dark ruby. Nose is coffee with candy-apple coating, black cherry, cassis with a little bit of tobacco and a hint of clove. Taste reminded me of black cherries, a little licorice some wood and tobacco. The oak is stronger than th...

Thanks EMark. So let's lift my Merlot budget to under $20. I tried Columbia Crest Grand Estates Merlot earlier this year and the flavor was weak with zero finish so I plan to stay away from their merlots.My fabulous local liquor store has 2 reasonably priced Merlots I've been considering: Annabella and Greg Norman Limestone Cabernet-Merlot. Any... Read More

I need some help finding a under $15 Merlot. For years my go-to Merlot was Clos du Bois North Coast because it had soft tannins, lush red/dark fruit and a silky mouthfeel/finish. The '12 and '13 vintages had a spice component that I didn't like so Merlot, hasn't been in my lineup. I recently tried an Old World Merlot, Clos de la Moriette, whi... Read More
