Holiday Wine Tasting-Woburn

Last night, I led a group of of the North Shore Winers to a Holiday Wine Tasting at Corporate Wines in Woburn. There were about 56 wines available for tasting.

I did not try all of the wines but the following are the ones I enjoyed the most of those I did taste. There were probably other good wines too, but I could not taste everything there.

2005 Chidaine Montlouis Loire, France ($22.75)--A 100% Chenin Blanc. An interesting wine. Full bodied, creamy, a little bit of sweetness
2006 Kiona Vineyard Riesling, Washington ($14.25)--Crisp, nice citrus flavors, only tinge of sweetness
2006 Victor Hugo Viognier, Paso Robles, California ($21.25)--I very much like the wines of this producer. Though I am not a fan of Viognier, this wine would definitely appeal to those that do.
2002 Changala Cabernet Sauvignon, Paso Robles, California ($18.25)--Lots of bright cherry flavors.
2005 La Reme Jeanne Cotes du Rhone, France ($12.75)--Nice, dark berry flavors
2005 Mont Olivet Chateauneuf Pape, France ($33.25)--Exceptional wine. Muscular, powerful wine with good berry flavors.
2005 Graciano Rosso Montepulciano, Italy ($12.25)--Excellent value wine, like a baby Brunello.
2003 Trentadue La Storia Cuvee 32, California ($34.25)--A Super Tuscan blend. Good blend of berries and spice.
2004 Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Cabernet Sauvignon, Washington ($19.25)--Good basic Cabernet
2003 Dom Martinho Vinho Regional Alentejano, Portugal ($14)--Dark, smoky wine. Blend of Aragones (Tempranillo), Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah.
2004 Dry Creek The Mariner, California ($44.25)--Bordeaux-style blend. Smooth, spicy, good fruit. Lots of complexity, well balanced.
