A Crazy Gary Tasting

R-Fusion Riesling 2006. Nahe, Germany. Once you get past the Asian hooker on the front label this stuff aint to bad! Crisp, clean and slightly dryer than one might expect. A very nice summer porch pounder.

Luigi Baudana Chardonnay 2006. Piedmont, Italy. Visous, rich and packed with opulent layers of herbs and ripe fruit, this lovely Italian is elegant, intense and not for the faint of heart.

Galante Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon 2003. Carmel Valley, CA. Huge, tar, sweet tobacco, dark chocolate, green pepper and a rustic quality that I certainly was not expecting from a CA wine, all packed into a bottle of damn fine Cabernet. - Thanks Gar!
