Here's a quick
photo shot of some (but not all) of the wines "we" worked on during the late 2009 holiday season, with some help from my parents. The highlights were the Chateauneuf (Charbonniere, 2005,
note below), and the Jaffurs 07 Syrah (
note below). Out of the "budget" wines, I'd have to say the 08 Briccotondo was my favorite, just a batch of wild strawberries with good balance and acidity for food. Since I didn't post a separate tasting note for the Bricco that'll have to do - had the 07 which I found a bit gutsier, but this is still lovely for around a $12-14 wine. Happy 2010 everyone!
