Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, March 2, 2011 - I was going to say 'almost doesn't taste like wine' but Sherry is wine--this resembles Sherry more than it does any other pink wine that I've ever tried (pink, here, being a relative term because this wine looks more like diluted whisky in the glass than it does the salmon-hued quaffers we see in Summer). The vintage I've enjoyed most (of three) was the 1997 with its fleeting and, for me, haunting bouquet. This 2000 is much more assertive, at least at this stage, and therefore different, but just as enjoyable--able to stand up to brawnier food as well. By the time I tasted my single bottle of the 1997 it was sold out and unavailable. Will not repeat that mistake with this wine. Special.
