.I taste a bunch-o-wine (technical condition for greater than lots of people). So each week, I share some of my red wine testimonials (mainly coming from samples) and tasting details in a "mini-review" style. They are meant to become unusual, exciting, as well as (usually) easily-digestible customer reviews of (typically) currently accessible red wines (visit here for the skinny on how to review them), thus you can get right to the point and make a decision if they are actually for you (or otherwise). Cheers!
