Gnarly Head Old Vine Zin 2008

After trying out some really great California Zinfandel wines, I decided to look for some more. Usually I stay away from reds below the 100 SEK line but I picked this one because the label was kind of cool and the description sounded tasty. It was smooth but so sweet, I could barely drunk up my glass. I will keep on looking.

Christian Audigier Syrah 2008

The wine had very interesting taste, quite spicy and I liked it. I wasn't expecting much because one may think all the efforts went into the bottle design. But it was tasty, according to the description: "Elegant on the nose with truffle, eglantine and spicy aromas, achieved through small yield wine-making. The tannins have depth and a wonderful velvet texture." There are four more wines and two champagnes and I want to try them all.

Penfolds Rawson's Retreat Shiraz Cabernet 2009

I finished up a box of this one at my mum's house. It is the typical table wine, nothing out of the ordinary. It tasted better with dark chocolate.

Fess Parker Zinfandel 2008

This one came up during a wine wasting at Swedish Taste. Liked it very much, almost as much as Peachy Canyon. I wasn't able to find a decent photo of the bottle on Google, so I got the Voignier instead. The lable was pretty much the same.
