The 1st was the Clarendon hills 2001 Hickinbotham Vineyard. Have never encountered a stranger wine in my drinking carrear. From the first smell to the 1st taste there was an off-putting element that persisted. Not TCA or brett or spoiled, just plain jane nasty. Put in away after throwing the rest of the glass in the terlit. Then opened me last bottle of the Dutschke Willow Bend 1998 Merlot/Shiraz/Cab
blend. Bootiful juice. Then the game came on.WW
