I am new to wines and have been trying various cabs that are under $15. After doing some research on the web I decided to try the widely recommended Chateau Ste Michelle 2001 Cab. YUK! Its all Tannin and no fruit, its a very raspy wine IMO. Did I get a bad bottle, or are my tastes just out of wack? I had a bottle of Michael Pozzan that I thought was decent. Also had some Santa Ema reserve cab from Chile at a restaraunt that I though was good.

Never the less they have some pretty nice whites for the price. Cold Spring Riesling is just a delight with oriental food, not as off dry as the Dr Loosen and a tad richer than the regular Riesling.
Their whites are another story entirely. Tried the Eroica?
It was their 1973 and 1974 rieslings that put them on the map.

Yes I have had the Eroica, but prefer the cold spring
CSM Gewurztraminer is also quite nice.
