This is still a work in progress as I upload tasting notes and wine labels from as far as 1999... Check back once in a while to get the updates.

Mont-Olivet and Turley

Dinner at a friend's home.

1990 Clos du Mont-Olivet La Cuvée du Papet - kinda disappointed as this was a bit "cooked", or showed too much stewed fruits. Maybe it breathed too long? Maybe past its peak. But still showed classic Rhône nose and palate.

Chateau Segonnes - typical Bordeaux and not interesting.

1997 Turley Zinfandel Dogtown Vineyard - very good stuff. Showed all the characters of a fruity, forward Californian zin. Very enjoyable.
