FRIDAY NIGHT TASTINGS, SEPTEMBER 26, 2008
Present tonight were Uncles E, P, W and Jimmy. Uncle N is on vacation, somewhere in the South Seas (I think on a deserted island, where he can communicate with us only by means of letters in a bottle).
We had 4 wines tonight, all good but "not elegant", according to Uncle P.
The first one, presented by Uncle Piroca, was a supprise. Thought to be jammy, with notes of cedar, smoke, blackberry, plum and passion fruit-maybe "a petit verdot" (Uncle E) "a California cab"( Uncle W, who is consistently wrong every time). It was Michel Roland's latest bordeaux. A good wine, the best tonight, 3 to 3+.

I am glad to see you guys have enjoyed your wines. I heard Michael Rolland to be too tanic and too young to be enjoied at this point but obviously not.It is the warmest day in the past week here and siting in a beach-side cabana drinking Mojito makes me sleepy. Happy drinking.
