.I sample a bunch-o-wine (technical term for much more than lots of people). So each week, I share several of my red or white wine assessments (usually coming from examples) and sampling notes in a "mini-review" style. They are implied to become wacky, fun, and also (mainly) easily-digestible customer reviews of (usually) presently available red wines (click here for the skinny on exactly how to read them), therefore you may get right relevant and also determine if they are actually for you (or not). Cheers!
