Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

... on the back pallet.

Gee Cruiser, a pallet is an awful lot of wine! Especially when it's not good wine!

Probably depends on how many sheep you have in the back paddock?

I always buy in bulk - you saw how I drink at Toppys!

Pallet / Palate - jeez I love / hate autophil!

 

[Sedimental]

Was planning a night off on soda water to prepare for the visit to the Willamette Valley next month but sedimental and the discussions today have been slowly working their magic so I searched the cellar and found my 2nd last bottle of the Block 2. Delicious it is too, if a little soft.

Damm you sedimental!:evil:

Mmmmm......salivating from here!!!:mrgreen:

 

[Sedimental]

Wouldn't go that far - and wine I depicted was not quite as good as I hoped - lacked complexity and stopped a little short on the back pallet.

Indeed I think this wine may have been mislabelled - it said Western Australia - but I suspect it was indeed a New Zealand wine ........................ it tasted a lot like sheep dip!

Back pallet or pallet out the back?

Probably the 'autocruise' you have to be more concerned about.

One of my 'habits' is to have 'now' mistyped and then auto-corrected to 'not' and I don't notice. Such as "This wine is not drinking well."

Sounds good. I'm tied up the night of Wed 29th.

Believe it or not, after last week's tasting, I have been welcomed into Daver6's wine tasting group (see, QF WP, I don't always disgrace myself :shock::mrgreen and we have a tasting that night. Theme is: reds from a road less travelled. Promises to be fun and interesting.

Otherwise I'm free Mon-Thur nights.

You were welcomed because you did disgrace yourself and fit right in

Chardonnay Friday so another one for Sedimental to complete the double from last night. We'll be getting to trifectas and Parimutuel drinking systems soon!

Drinking nicely if a little young yet - needs another year..

I assume you can see it as a Mod, the rest of us cannot.

Will try to upload again, hope it works now.

It's so smooth already, would never guess the vintage is only 2011 if doing blind tasting.

Hmm, just clicked the link and it opened. I will discuss it with support.

I have checked with support, and it does not appear to be a mod thing. MacBook Air, OS X 10.10.3, Safari 8.05

The first one doesn't work for me either - the second one is fine.

We've just polished off a 2012 Leconfield cab sav. Very enjoyable wine that improved over the course of the evening.

Reached for the top shelf myself tonight!

Very light and fruity - far from quality, but an easy drinking quaffer I guess.
