Default North Berkley Imports tasting

Wine tasting at Arroyo Vino in Santa Fe 12/5/12
Domain de Margalleau, Vouvray Sec 2011 apples and minerals B+
Regis Cruchet, Vouvrey, Sec 1994 nose of bandaids and mushrooms, odd astringent wine B-, wine geeks were raving, I wasn't
Domaine de Noire, Chinon"Soif de Tendresse", 2010 nice Cab Franc nose a bit tannic B
Domain la Milliere, Cotes du Rhone, Vielles Vignes, "Cuvee Unique", 2011 dark fruits, needs time B
Les Clos du Calliou, Cotes du Rhone, Vielles Vignes, "Cuvee Unique", 2010 CdP from just out of department, 2010 good year for CdP A-
Domaine du Caillou, CdP, "Les Quartz", 2009 really nice CdP no sign of closing down but pricey at 107.99. A-

Overall, fairly good wines though really old Vouvray not to my taste.
