Monthly Wine Recap for December
Drank a lot of Wine for Dec. Had a 2005 Bordeaux was ok, I think it needs more time in the bottle I have 5 left.
Used my Decanter for almost every red wine it works wonders all a wine really needs I find is just an hour and its way better.
December I drank a lot of sparkling only because I have this craving and I am starting to really enjoy had 2 champagnes from my collection enjoyed that.
That's All I can think of off the top of my head
November '08 Wine Recap
From Left to Right
GMH Meritage / 2004 / Limestone Coast / Geoff Hardy
Lots of Oak on the nose getting the liquorish, anise coming through which I don't like, the wine it self is nice but still alot of oak coming through over all not my favourite do have a couple left in the cellar.
Mas de Beaulieu Syrah / 2007 / Vin de Pays
Nice drink would defiantly drink again, not alot of pepper notes which I dont generally like in Syrahs. Thumbs up for me
Chianti Colli Senesi / 2006 / Chianti Tuscany
Didn't like this I have one bottle left in my cellar going to have to find a way to unload it the major problem was the next day the sulfites hit my chest and to me that means lots of sulfites which makes my next day a bad day and the flavour was mild and boring with food it did "alright".
