So every week, I share a few of my a glass of wine assessments (typically from samples) and tasting details in a "mini-review" format. They are actually indicated to become quirky, fun, as well as (typically) easily-digestible assessments of (mostly) presently accessible red or white wines (visit this site for the skinny on exactly how to review all of them), therefore you can get right relevant and also decide if they're for you (or otherwise).
