Brief Notes from a Tasting

[dananne]

Hi, all. Wow, old post! Welcome to realestateguy!

The '99 was great, but I've been less impressed with the '00 and the '01. The '01, which is what I'm seeing on the shelves right now, was drier and lacked that distinctive euclyptus flavor that I so enjoyed. I know others who like it, too, so maybe I've been a little on the high side with my expectations since the '99.

Also, the %ages have flip-flopped almost completely, and it is a Zin-predominant wine now.

In short, it's not going to set you back to try it, but I've not had one since the '99 that really wowed me.
