  I ran up to Napa for a few days to get away and taste some wines from places I'd never been (most of them).  I went during BottleRock Napa, but alas, didn't partake in an y of those festivities.  Some great finds, so I have listed/linked any of the wines I rated over 90 points, should anyone have interest, or their own thoughts on the wines. Wit...

  In my continuing fascination with Chardonnay (or it could be more like a streak), I was out to dinner with my folks and we happened to go out to King's fish house, basically my dad's favorite restaurant. It's always been a bit of a tough play for wine, though not without a few somewhat interesting selections. Was also interesting how I might hav... Read More

  Think Tank Syrah Santa Barbara County White Hawk Vineyard 2007

  Snoothrank:

  This is fairly intense on the nose, a bit oak driven with grilled pork aromas, notes of milk chocolate, leather, and mint over meaty plum fruit. Very soft and seamless in the mouth with fair brightness to the creamy concentrated berry fruits that have a nice porcini edge to them. The fruit flavors are pretty extracted here, and the tannins thoug... Read More

  Think Tank Syrah Santa Barbara County White Hawk Vineyard 2007

  Snoothrank:

  Bright red fruit and cinnamon coffee cake topping aromas. Still a little bit of heat, but that will mellow out over time. Love the deep red fruit, mostly cranberries and cherries, with a tart finish of oak and vanilla. Read More

  They cracked the WS Top 100 with the Shiraz, reallocated the remaining stock to the US to take advantage of the increased demand, and bottled a second blend to sell in Australia, from different batches of wine than they used for the original.  (They are not shipping it to North America:  The second blend is available in Australia only.)  http://...

  The rules of probability seem to indicate that the powers that be on this site are stealing tasting notes from members of Cellar Tracker and posting them here without proper permission/attribution.  This is my first, last and only post to ask members why they would put up with such behavior.

  Think Tank Pinot Noir Santa Rita Hills - Sta. Rita Hills La Encantada Vineyard 2008

  Snoothrank:

  Earthy and funky on the nose with a chalky edge to the barnyard, rubber and leather aromas. Theres some nice fruit buried in there and gently floral top notes but this is sauvage. Very soft and broad on entry with wonderfully bright acidity supporting pure wild raspberry and lightly red curranty fruit on the palate. Theres a suggestion of sweetn... Read More
