Community Tasting Note
Warren987 Does not like this wine:
55 Points
Saturday, December 13, 2014 - The wine looks violet colored. The legs are slow. There is light sediment in the bottle. The body is light. The wine has coarse texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has high acidity.
Not good. High tannins and loads of acidity. Sharp bouquet. May improve with age.

12/13/2014 11:50:00 PM - Warren987, welcome to cellar tracker! Please be aware that your ratings impact a wine's overall score, so it is more helpful to the rest of us if you use a scoring scale that is consistent with most everyone else. Generally, most wines will fall in the 80 - 92 point range (assuming they are decent, drinkable, not flawed). 70 points would generally indicate you had to spit it out. When you see that 52 other tasting notes for this wine average 87.3 points, you could maybe assume that you got a flawed bottle, or you really just don't care for this style of wine. If you want to use your own scale, perhaps you could just mention it in the body of the note, and not use the scoring box. Just trying to be helpful...
