A point that Alex B made when we were walking to the subway

This is something of a hobby horse for me; this wine needs 36, or, preferably, 48 hours to open up. At that stage, it becomes agreeable, and quite powerful, losing that rather rough edge which is characteristic of the newly decanted wine. whole heartedly agree on the decanting time being closer to ...

hazy pale red with a brownish tint. light nose of something floral? Backed by a honey graham cracker nose. This definitely had a great delicate smell that you need to dig for. taste is a bit watered but it's got great red fruit and honey. The finish is very disappointing with a sharp bitter tobacco ...

best colored wine of the bunch with a clear ruby red color. huge amount of bottle stink that disappears after an hour only to come back again after some more time. (very weird as we spent the night trying to catch the drinking window) The bottle stink really hit me and I didn't enjoy this at all. Ho...
