  I am so behind, but went here summer of 2011 with some friends.  We enjoyed lots of sights and meals in Olympia and Seattle.  Of course, the trip warranted some wine time.  We had fun visits at Ste Michelle where we tasted:2010 Horse Heaven Hills Sauv Blanc2008 Cold Creek Chardonnay2010 Harvest Select Riesling2008 Muscat Canelli2008 Austral2008 ...

  I am a dyed in the wool fan of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlots, Sangiovese's and a few Chardonnays and Pinot Grigio's. I am trying to widen my spectrum to include Pinot Noir's. I live in the Pacific Northwest so the Pinot Noir's are readily available due to the large varieties from Oregon.Before I embark on purchasing some different brands I would l... Read More

  Just a quick posting on a tasting we did last week.  We've been celebrating our tenth anniversary, and I stockpiled 2001s.  Good thing it was a strong vintage in so many places.  Of course, the 2001 Gran Reservas from Rioja are, in some cases, just hitting the market and are terrific values. We celebrated with a bottle we bought in the first cou... Read More

  Windy Ridge Chardonnay 2005

  Snoothrank:

  Hate to admit but it ain't that bad. I made sure I did a cheese palate-cleansing before and after sips, and was taken by the wine's simplicity. It had a clean nose, freshness on the midpalate, and a slightly refreshing finish. When one factors in that, on a lark, I just had to try a $3 wine from Big Lots, I'm quite pleased with the purchase. C... Read More

  I'm fairly new to wine tasting, but I've noticed something: Most Zinfandels I have tried really just haven't rubbed me the right way. I'm always excited when the opp presents itself to me to try them, because I tell myself, "Surely, I just haven't had the right one!" Is this the right frame of mine? Have I not just had the right Zin? Or are Zins... Read More
