What happened to my taste?

Hello jareese,

Your tastebuds actually have memories which allows you to taste and remember what things taste like...or should taste like. You are obviously very conscious of wood and if a wine (red or white) is over-oaked it's apparent to you.

My advice to you is to jump out of your box for a few bottles. Maybe buy a nice Alsacian White, Un-oaked Chardonnay or a Sauvignon Blanc.

This will confuse your palate and might give you a fresh start. What I'm trying to accomplish here is to get the wood out of your mouth for a little while.

Hope that helps
