2006 Columbia Crest Reserve Red "Walter Clore"


The other day I did something I normally don't do...I picked up a bottle of wine from Costco. I saw the price and could not help myself. We were just going in to pick up TP but as Nicole left me alone for a few minutes I found the cart heading toward the wine section. Walter Clore for $19.99!

Amazing wine with a great nose of sweet casis, rich plums and big oak. On the palate it is big but not enough to plow you over. Rich notes of dark tree fruit with hints of pepper and leather. We let it breathe and had it with some meats, cheeses and dark chocolate. Finish was smooth and rich. Going to order a few 6-packs of this for Nicole and I. I love it.
