A blog about tasting wine, from someone who has tasted that wine. Or at least looked at it. Or copied a picture of it from the internet.

Or got someone else to.

Tor del Colle Riserva Montepulciano D.O.C. 2007


Tor del Colle Riserva Montepulciano D.O.C. 2007Now some might suggest that as time goes on, when people are doing the same thing for a while, they may become complacent. They might suggest that, as I review more and more wines, my reviews will become shorter, more superficial, with fewer attempts at rubbish humour which, let’s face it, are undoubtedly missed by you, the stupid reader. Well, they’d be right. As you can tell, this mulling over is less a review of wine as a method of creating additional column inches which, given I’m not paid at all, let alone by the word, may seem foolish. However, as the astute among you would see, if I’d just stuck with the half arsed review then the number of lines written would be disproportionate when compared with the picture of the wine, affixed left. So, onto the review... It’s red. It’s nice. It goes with blue cheese. It comes from Italy. I like it. I have bought more.


*This was a singularly unfair review of a genuinely interesting wine - sorry Italy. On the other hand I didn’t even bother to review the Sangiovese I had last week which was crap and cost more, so on balance you’ve come off well.
