Friday NIGHT TASTINGS, January 23, 2008

Uncle N being away in the carib south seas, we had a modest tasting; present were :Uncles Jimmy, Piroca, Winepath and E.
The tastings included: Clio 2006 (wonderful as usual, a 3+); El Felino cab sauvignon (Argentina, Paul Hobbs, 2006 -not bad, a 2+) and Mitolo, G.A.M., 2005, a Mc Laren Vale shiraz, a 2 (which had improved after opening, to a 2+ within 24 hours). We did not take photos of the labels this time; it was an eventful evening nevertheless. Uncle E was disappointed with the Mitolo, but this was an interesting wine which needed decanting.
