Rush and wine

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I stumbled on this description of a wine on the Montreal Gazette website written by Michael Godel(http://o.canada.com/2013/03/19/new-wave-under-20-wines-go-kosher-for-passover/). Just thought that I would share this with you since I came upon it totally unexpected.

Borgo Reale Sangiovese KPM 2011 (637793, $13.95) may come off boxy, as if housed in cheap wood but for $14 this is really about the best you will ever hope to find. Seems to be in a bit of a rush, in the spirit of radio, built upon a synthesizer, Sangiovese sound. Still, ”all this machinery making modern music can still be open-hearted.” Red, raspberry fruit is not so Sangio but leather and smoke is. A bit contrived but trendy and copacetic.  87  @ALLIEDIMPORTERS

	Looks like he tossed that in there out of nowhere. Are we sure he's a legitimate wine taster? (He's got good taste in music at least.)
