Taste it Again / Lost & Found
On occasion, I’ll take a wine I like and put it away in a “special box” for a few years to see how it will age … below you will read happened to those wines. On the other hand, there are wines that get “lost” in my wine cellar with nary a review ever written - some have turned into golden Treasures, others supreme Trash and then there are those that fall somewhere in-between (Tolerable). We’ll look at those here too. (New wines are being added all the time so keep coming back):

Prince put it best when he said "Tonight we're going to party like it's 19-99" ... well Canada turned 142 today and I opened a wine from 1999 - a Southbrook 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon - Lailey Vineyard ... and if there was any doubt about the age-ability of Ontario reds, there isn't any more. Prince also said, "Two thousand zero zero oops, out of time" - this one surely is not.

My first love in the world was music, which is why I was in the radio business for about 10 years - but then wine took over and I have never looked back ... then again sometimes it's fun to find a comment thread between the two. This Chateau des Charmes 2005 Estate Riesling reminded me of a Lovin' Spoonfuls song - try to guess which one before clicking through.
