Community Tasting Note

• kenv Does not like this wine: 55 points

  November 15, 2012 - WCC: Totally Blind Reds (Bob's (chezfur)): [Double decanted for about 12 hours.] Big waxy nose characteristic of young Rhone wines. In the mouth, hot alcoholic and nasty.

Nothing wrong with not liking a wine, but even your description does not match the score. Please reconsider. If that is what you think is correct, so be it. You are entitled to the opinion.

  Ken - I have to say the line-up of rarefied Barolos you have tasted and written about is remarkable. I have Barolo-envy.
  
  Happy holidays to all.
