I like how you aren't afraid to give a low rating to a wine. Sometimes I feel like wine reviewers are afraid to give any rating below 85 or so. It's like the rating scale is really only 10 or 15 points with the other 80 or so given by default.
@Plur307 71? I'll be learning to judge wines properly next year, so I could call even lower. I had times where I called a Jimmy Watson Trophy Australian Red Wine at the time below 60 after a few years, too.
Love your reviews, always right on, IMHO! :)

Great call on Mt. Difficulty. 2008 was a bad vintage for Pinot Noir in Central Otago due to a hot vintage and a drought.

Silver Oak cabs, completely over rated and over priced in my opinion.
