2006 Wine South and Reserve Tasting

[dananne]

Rereading last evenings somewhat tipsy prose, I realized that I didn't mention vintages of a few wines mentioned above. For the Silver Oaks, we had the '01 Napa and the '02 Alexander Valley. Of the two, I actually preferred the more tannic and complex tasting Alexander Valley. Both still tasted like toothpicks, though. The Georges de Latour was the '02, and what I remember most about it was the loamy earthiness. The Ornellaia was the '02 (though they said the '03 would be the one on the shelves right now). The Oroppas was the '02.
