So each week, I discuss several of my red wine customer reviews (usually from samples) and also sampling notes in a "mini-review" format. They are meant to become wacky, enjoyable, and also (typically) easily-digestible evaluations of (mostly) presently readily available wines (go here for the skinny on how to review them), so you can easily get right to the point and also choose if they're for you (or not).
