Big Daddy Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon -2002 (WE-24963)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Big, meaty aromas yield to flavors of plum and clove. The finish features coffee notes and some vanilla. The weakness here is heavy, cheek-starching tannins that throw it out of balance. –M.S. 1 Note

Mayol Syrah -2002 (WE-34233)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Only a mild vegetal hint to the nose holds this back. Otherwise, it’s round and chunky, and quite well balanced. The red fruit on the palate is vivid, and the vanilla-tinged oak seems to grace that fruit. The texture throughout is good, as is the color. 1 Note

Mayol Bonarda -2002 (WE-34234)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

This is about as good as it gets with Bonarda, a thinner, juicier red with lots of acidity and true red-fruit flavors. Plum, cherry and a touch of oak define the palate, while the finish is dry and expansive. A bit grapy and grabbing, but still a good example of this mostly lost Italian variety. 1 Note

Xavier Flouret La Pilar Malbec -2006 (W-1212)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Full body (as a good Malbec should be) but also very elegant + smooth tannins. 2 Notes

San Polo Malbec -2006 (WE-88085)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Rubber, mushroom and smoke rise up on the hot, molten nose, while the palate is hard, tough to penetrate and narrow, with dark berry and piercing pepper accents. Tough to dig into and find higher qualities. Thus it comes across as a surface wine without much depth or elegance. 1 Note

Altocedro Malbec -2007 (WE-90020)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Fairly herbal, with burnt briar aromas that cause it to tilt toward acrid. The palate shows mostly tart cranberry and wild berry flavors, and while it looks dark to the eye, the wine is surprisingly shallow and a little bit sharp in the end run. 1 Note

Mauricio Lorca Cabernet Sauvignon -2005 (WE-68184)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Even if this full-bodied Cab starts with some eggy, pastry-like aromas, it soon finds its form. The nose brings char and baked black fruit, while the palate is full of creamy blackberry and brown sugar flavors. Rather rich and ripe, with medium tannins and mild acidity. Drink sooner than later. 1 Note

Felipe Rutini Malbec -2003 (WE-52185)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Yet again this relatively affordable wine shows the charms and potential of Argentinean Malbec. It has a beautiful color and full, fruity aromas. The palate runs a bit snappy and upright, with cherry-based fruit that will go great with any type of grilled or braised meat. Clean, ripe and tasty, with the slightest bit of perky acids. Imported by Billington Imports. 1 Note

Mauricio Lorca Malbec -2005 (WE-68183)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

This is a delicious and somewhat rare style of Malbec: it has none of the usual oak. What you wind up with is fruity, clean and pure. The body is maybe a touch leaner without the oak; the flavor profile is brighter and more linear. 1 Note

Mauricio Lorca Syrah -2005 (WE-68185)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Starts out all rowdy and sweaty, with animal hide and warm earth. And that all makes sense: this is unoaked, unmolested Syrah and thus it has its funky side. Along the roadside there’s blackberry and pepper flavors and peppy acids and tannins. An interesting ride that’s not without its ups and downs. 1 Note
