.I sample a bunch-o-wine (technological phrase for greater than many people). So each week, I discuss a few of my red or white wine reviews (primarily coming from examples) and sampling notes in a "mini-review" layout. They are actually implied to be wacky, enjoyable, and (primarily) easily-digestible evaluations of (typically) currently accessible wines (visit this site for the skinny on just how to read them), therefore you can solve relevant and also determine if they're for you (or otherwise).
