It seems like the first set of ten wines we offered for The Top25 list of 2006 were well received. I will publish the next ten wines at the end of this week. As I did previously, I am issuing some clues as to what will be in the list when it comes out. I have put the answers in bold

1. This wine is the first red from California for this producer. 2005 Auteur Sonoma Stage Pinot Noir
2. This wine (cuvee) is a real dog (a very large one)2004 Ambullneo Pinot Noir Mastiff Cuvee
3. This wine proves two mothers are better than one 2003 Drinkward Peschon Cabernet Sauvignon Entre Deux Meres
4. This wine was made by last year's top winemaker and is named for an ancient city: 2004 SCHOLIUM PROJECT BABYLON

5. This wine is too precious to wash your hair in. 2003 Fidelitas Cabernet Sauvignon Champoux Vineyard

6. This "jewel" of a Cabernet producer was in last year's list too 2003 Diamond Terrace Cabernet Sauvignon

7. This winery produces another wine from a famous Monterey vineyard (no bull)2003 Miura Pinot Noir Talley Vineyard
