As you can see from above, I'm getting fairly into Malbecs and Grenaches. I've been loving the leather, dirty, earthy, poopy aromas and tastes lately. Dunno, maybe it's from growing up on a ranch.
What do you guys think?

I'm not a wine guy. I like my Bud Light more than anything. There is one wine that I have tried so far that I like. It is a cheap red wine. I don't even know the name of it. Most wine I have tasted is bitter. I would like to hit a wine tasting with my wife sometime to find some good wine that we both like.
Looks like you dropped some major coin on that list!!!
Wow. I don't think I can pronounce anything on your list. I'm more into the dark fruits, so your wine list and mine probably don't get along too well. Had enough poop with two boys, so don't need to drink something that has that kind of aftertaste.
Had the Mas Donis you gave Bob, and we liked that. Here is my list of three recent international purchases:
07 Tres Picos Garnacha (Spain) - if you like Mas Donis, you should like this one
06 Crios De Susana Balbo Syrah/Bonarda (Argentina)
07 Tormaresca Neprica (Italy)
I'm glad that no california wines were on the list. I am having a cali syrah right now and I now know why I don't like them...too oaky. Most of the wines on the list do have dark fruit components with subtle dirty components, well, at least I hope they do.
i love bordeaux. i'm gonna check to see if we have those here and then i'll let you know.
and ya, good luck with the no wine buying for 40 days...good thing you laid in some good stock to tide you over.
