  Wine Peeps — Authority: 466
  If Miles had tasted either of these Washington Merlots, he never would have made his ridiculous comment about the varietal in the movie, Sideways .

• Frankland Estate Olmo’s Reward 2007

  
  The Wine Front — Authority: 149
  It’s named for Olmo, not Elmo (who likes nothing more than a good tickle), as in Harold who put forward, in 1956, Mt Barker and Frankland River as two of his recommendations for promising regions in which to grow wine grapes. On the down side he also introduced the Ruby Cabernet grape, but who could [...]

For food, we prepared cheese and chocolate fondue, along with chicken and steak, tons of fruits, bread, and mum-made walnut brownies. Very nice (and affordable) ...

• Chateau Saint-Pierre 2005

  
  TasteWine — Authority: 137
  Chateau Saint-Pierre, Saint-Julien 2005 This is pleasure in a glass, ripeness of fruit, great density yet rounded off edges.
