Drank: 5/14/07 on the Deck during dinner.
Kind of disappointing, actually. This was on Total Wine’s top 20 of the spring, but I wouldn’t buy it again (not even for $12/bottle.) Just blah. Tastes like red wine.

A very satisfying ending to an excellent meal. Strong smokey nose, darkly sweet texture, with an aftertaste that I could taste the next day. Delightful, and reasonably priced for the age.

On the lees. Very dry, almost to a fault. Kind of dull. $34/bottle. Last in a flight.
This restaurant, by the way, is wonderful. If anyone is unfortunate enough to ever find themselves in the mediocre St. Louis suburb of Clayton, Remy’s is a great bet. Good & knowledgable bartenders, excellent mediterranean-inspired food, obvioiusly a good wine selection.

Bready. Kind of boring. Citric, lemon/lime sort of scent, but boring palete. $34/bottle. Second in a flight.

Columbia Valley Cab. Tastes like Mocha, warm olive oil. Sweetly citric. $42/bottle. The third in a flight (see previous two entries), but not the best of the bunch.

Coffee! Very strong tannin, heavy alcohol aroma, moderately earthy tone. Fascinating cab. $36/bottle at the restaurant.

A mendoza cabernet. Thick, sharp tannins, light oak, dark cherries & currants. OK, especially for a $30 restaurant wine.
