3/31/23, 8:13 AM - Could you have had a flawed bottle ??I just opened a delightfully fresh 2010 Emily's that displays bright fruit that is nothing like the bottle in your tasting note.
3/24/23, 9:53 PM - Perhaps you had a flawed bottle instead of a horrid bottle worthy of a 79 which out of line with community scores ??
2/13/23, 6:18 PM - 52 points for very smooth? Not within the conventional scoring practice most on CT follow. If the wine was flawed, then rate it as flawed; please do not berate it so and still provide a positive comment.
8/27/22, 1:03 PM - If you find a wine to be corked, please do not provide a numeric score. If the wine is flawed, you should check the flawed box instead of skewing the average score. You may still write comments on a flawed bootle, especially since you scored the same wine 90 points one year earlier. By the way, a corked wine has nothing to do with its age; young wines can be corked too.

11/21/21, 1:38 PM - I appreciate you note and I agree; I really wanted to like this Grenacha more than I actually did. I did detect the faintest hint of bandaid or maybe green peppercorn, a flaw I did not obsess over and did not include in my tasting note. I gave it an 89 and had purchased only one other bottle which I will open in 5+ years. My note follows:"I consumed this Evandria limited edition over four days in a kitchen counter test for agabllity of this wine. This $14 Grenacha from LastBottle held up to the test; fruit forward early and found an earthy backbone as it softened. Perfect composite cork, easily removed. Dark ruby color with medium clarity. Aromas of raspberry, cherry, and baking spice with flavors of black cherry pomegranate, and a touch of white pepper with a medium finish. This wine needs time despite the 6 month in oak barrels and could benefit from decanting. Good fruit from Extremadura, a western Spanish region bordering Portugal and good winemaking by Bodegas Coloma."
12/21/20, 7:19 PM - A 75 point score generally indicates some major shortcoming in the wine. However, your note does not indicate any negative qualities. A 75 point score is inconsistent with the remainder of the community, as well as, my impression of this wine.
9/14/20, 1:29 PM - I think you had a flawed bottle. Not my experience.
8/3/20, 1:18 PM - A 77 is little harsh for a wine that was okay.
4/1/20, 7:08 PM - i'm not sure what your review means, not very helpful.How could you score this Grenache so low?Are you sure your review was for the 2010 Summerland Grenache? Could it have been a flawed bottle?
2/18/20, 1:56 PM - All my 2008 Goldeneye and Migration are now gone. My opinion on quality did not change, these were flawed wines. I never understood why Duckhorn released these 2008 Pinot Noirs.

8/30/19, 4:04 PM - Pinot Noir is not a cab
2/25/17, 6:21 AM - Should not be scored if corked, just rate as flawed
11/14/15, 7:59 AM - I think you had a flawed bottle. Mine was fresh fruit and no funk. Try another.
1/7/15, 4:31 PM - I have no vested interest in Macrae or Last Bottle, but, I am confident you had a flawed bottle. You might should indicate that you had a flawed bottle instead of panning the points with a 50. My tasting experience was much better. It is not too late to edit your review if you care to do so.
11/28/14, 5:16 PM - I'm afraid you must have had a bad bottle. We just finished one that was flawless.
10/4/14, 10:02 AM - The La Cuadrilla is 50/50 Grenache/Syrah
