For example I know that I generally agree with most of his Cabernet Sauvignon recommendations but think he enjoys dramatically different Pinot Noir then I do.<br /><br />Liren-after 10 years we make you an honorary native since there are only 10 true natives in the entire state.Mark's Wine Clubshttp://www.uncorkedventures.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011946245768794903.post-35538191753626559862010-03-27T11:52:41.939-07:002010-03-27T11:52:41.939-07:00I agree with you about his little darker, unfortun...I agree with you about his little darker, unfortunatly I've not tasted Zin :(Jury Borgiannihttp://grappolorosso.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011946245768794903.post-78605048165158454142010-03-26T18:42:10.278-07:002010-03-26T18:42:10.278-07:00@Liren: Thanks very much, I appreciate the nod!
@...@Liren: Thanks very much, I appreciate the nod!<br /><br />@Jury: I agree Geyserville is a good wine (as is Lytton Springs), but I find it a little darker, meatier, and less "delicious" than others. The blend in Geyserville is Zin, Carignane, Petit Sirah and Mataro, and in Lytton Springs - Zin, Petit Sirah, and Carignane. Reminded me of some fairly inexpensive Monastrell-based wines from Spain.Iron Chevskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05241149967997845671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011946245768794903.post-78163285779867242672010-03-26T17:41:37.441-07:002010-03-26T17:41:37.441-07:00I've tasted only one time the 2007 Geyserville...I've tasted only one time the 2007 Geyserville and this is really a good wineJury Borgiannihttp://grappolorosso.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011946245768794903.post-17069804580931089622010-03-26T13:04:12.959-07:002010-03-26T13:04:12.959-07:00Hi Gary,

There was not a wine there I did not enjoy.Liren @ Kitchen Worthyhttp://kitchen-worthy.comnoreply@blogger.com
