Community Tasting Note

  • shifter Likes this wine: 91 points

    December 23, 2020 - Don't buy this. It's not an excellent Gevrey at a surprising price point. There may be some red fruit wrapped in floral notes. The palate definitely doesn't have dark fruit on a backbone of acidity with a lingering finish. Save your money and buy some NSG or something from Chile.

    6/6/21, 10:24 AM - The original TN is tongue-in-cheek. I got it upon full reading combined with the score. Others might not get the run of the mill sarcasm thing, in part because it is rarely encountered in CT.

    (srh appears to still remain unaware of the original TN intent.)

    The "boomer" reply crosses the line into Twitter crude insult land.
