.I sample a bunch-o-wine (specialized condition for more than the majority of people). So every week, I share a few of my red or white wine assessments (mostly from examples) as well as tasting notes in a "mini-review" style. They are meant to be unusual, enjoyable, as well as (primarily) easily-digestible assessments of (usually) presently readily available wines (visit this site for the skinny on exactly how to read them), thus you can get right to the point as well as choose if they are actually for you (or otherwise). Thanks!
