Yellow Tail The Reserve 2005 Pinot Noir Australia	B
Plumy, rich, minerals, did I taste molasses? Very light on the oak, sweet? More like some of the sweeter and lighter Cabernets that I have had. Deep color. Had to look twice to make sure I was drinking a Pinot.
	Rancho Zabaco 2004 Zinfandel United States, California	B-
Lots of dark fruit flavor. Smooth tannins. Overall nice.
	Cellar No. 8 2004 Zinfandel United States, California, Sonoma Valley	B-
If you like cigar, leather, earthy wine with medium tannins (ie somewhat dry finish), then this wine is for you. Gets a B- because it will appeal to some wine drinkers.
	San Giuseppe 2003 Merlot Italy	C
Reminds me of an Ocean Spray drink with alcohol, spice and a bit oak. Too sweet for me, but I could see others liking this wine.
	San Giuseppe 2003 Valpolicella Italy	B-
Pleasant, very balanced with soft tannins, easy acidity, light spice and light oak. Light texture. Great easy drinking pizza wine.
	Penfolds 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Australia, South Australia	C-
	Blackstone 2004 Merlot United States, California, Sonoma Valley	B
I thought the review on the back of the bottle was great. Big fruit, not too acidic, light on the oak, nice full texture, balanced overall.
	Clos du Bois 2001 Zinfandel United States, California	B-
Good Fruit with almost a sweet finish. I'd day a good burger wine.
	Concha y Toro 2005 Chile	B
Rich and full with nice texture. Good spice and plum with good oak (maybe just a bit too much) Overall I say delicious.
	Penfolds Koonunga Hill 2004 Shiraz Cabernet Australia, South Australia	B-
If you can pick it up for under $10 bucks it is well worth the money.
	Smoking Loon 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon United States, California, Napa Valley	C+
Overall not bad for the cost. Not really heavy on the citrus, big on the fruit mostly plum, not real dry. Fairly smooth.
	Benziger 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon United States, California, Sonoma Valley	A-
Soild. Good all around. Little low on the fruit notes.
	Jacob's Creek 2001 Syrah/Shiraz Australia, South Australia	C+
Just can't get past the powerful citrus flavor that dominates. Acidity dominates. I did not find the wine particularly smooth.
	Masi 2003 Italy, Verona	A-
Excellent! It had a lighter body with perfect balance of fruit, acidity and tannins. I liked the great fruit and the balanced taste. On wine I could drink all night. Would go well with all types of food to! 0% Corvina, 25% Rondinella, 5% Molinara
