What am I going to do now? I have all these overoaked fruit bombs in my cellar and, now that my palate has evolved...I have no tolerance for them. I need a good balanced wine to make my toes curl with my favorite dishes. Frankly, I find my tastes moving much more toward French Bordeaux and Northern Rhones for their complex and balanced flavors than the wines I have been stockpiling over the last three years.

The problem with California oakey fruit bombs is that, after you age them for several years, they are loosey goosey alcoholic goop that are no fun to drink and do not complement good food.

Oh, the horror! How do I get past all these bottles that I have been collecting?

There are several members of this board who are to blame...you know who you are (dananne, innkeeper, winoweenie, brappy, etc.). You guys are hereby commissioned to buy all my crazy, overoaked, over the top Cali juice!
