(Re-Tasted November 2007) ... This wine was a real find a few years back at the LCBO - a really good bargain at $14.95. Today, the wine is going through a transition … the nose has gone heavily woodsy and vegetal (green pepper) – and the taste really follows suit; it's interesting but hardly drinkable at this time. I have another couple of bottles that I'm willing to try at a later date to see if the wine transitions out of this phase or descends further into the abyss.
On occasion, I’ll take a wine I like and put it away in a “special box” for a few years to see how it will age … below you will read happened to those wines. On the other hand, there are wines that get “lost” in my wine cellar with nary a review ever written - some have turned into golden Treasures, others supreme Trash and then there are those that fall somewhere in-between (Tolerable). We’ll look at those here too. (New wines are being added all the time so keep coming back):
