Over the last couple of weeks I’ve enjoyed some very nice red wines and some not so nice. The bottles went out with the recycling and I didn’t not specifics such as year or vintner so my remarks will be kind of vague.
In general, I’m kind of losing my taste for Spanish rioja. The ones I’ve had recently have been kind of one dimensional, with no nose.
On the other hand, Argentinian reds are rising in my estimation. They represent a very good price/quality combination, have depth and complexity of taste and a good, usually berry like nose.
Australian shiraz is an international standard. We had a Maclaren Valley (?) shiraz last night. It had a caramel bouquet and the taste of fruit jam. Very nice.
See more progress on: Enjoy great wine
