- Bucko - 12-19-2002 94 Viader -- Maybe the mountain fruit is closed at the moment, but the wine was not showing much tonight. Very unidimensional. 95 Sullivan -- Nice fruit but the oak spice is showing more strongly than ever, and the tannins are not dropping out -- still pretty drying. Well Bah! Humbug! - winoweenie - 12-20-2002 Will lay major odds the Viader is going thru a dumb period. Last I had was just starting to show her colors. YEEHAW (paraphrasing Hotsie). I'm gettin' offn' this sabbatical today at lunch. Taking some major juice to re-educate my tasty-buddnicks. Posting tomollow. Did I say YEEHAW!!!!!?
