What does "corked" mean?

This is the biggest and the most common mistake made about a description of legitimate wine fault. For a wine to be corked a chemical reaction has to alter the taste and smell of the wine. It occurs with the alcohol in wine from a too harsh solvent that's used to bleach corks. If it's corked mildly you will only lose some of the aromas of the fruit but if it's corked badly it will smell like wet cardboard.

2007 Mike Weir Pinot Noir

Mike Weir Pinot Noir is very comparable to any other Pinot Noir's offer for around $20. This wine goes very well with food and finishes very nicely in your palate. Being from the Ontario region in Canada this Pinot Noir is quite light. I would like to comment on the label on the bottle which was very simple yet very attractive and effective.

2007 Mike Weir Chardonnay

Mike Weir makes wine, and he gets involved with the winemaking process. All wines are produced in Ontario in Canada which has a very limited production and season so there's less of it. Just so you are aware partial proceeds from his wine goes to his foundation that funds children's charities. But what about the wine? I am not a big Chardonnay lover. But I am a big Mike Weir fan. This Chardonnay is light and clean and was quite good with very little oak. So if you enjoy is citrusy Chardonnay as opposed to a very oaky this is the one for you.

2002 Rosemount Balmoral Syrah

This Australian wine from Rosemount is superb. This one needed some time after I opened it but came through huge. It is full bodied, with a very deep purple color. This will be an outstanding experience for you and your guest

1999 Collosorbo Brunello Di Montalcino

This is not a cheap wine but I beleive worth every pennie. With 100% Sangiovese this wine is medium bodied with very nice tannins but very,vey smooth. If you enjoy Brunello you will certainly enjoy this one.

2005 Gabbiano Chianti

I love Italian wine. The Chianti process so much charm and tradition. This wine has invigorating flavors of cherry and spice and complements a wide variety of cuisine including pasta dishes grilled meats and pizza. For the value this is a very purchase. This wine contains sulfites.

2004 Etude Pinot Noir

Wow, what a treat. This 2004 vintage is just a delight. From the Carneros appellation, this Pinot Noir can compete with any great Pinot Noir from France. I enjoyed it over and over. If you are looking for are great Pinot Noir from California, search no more this is the one. You will enjoy it for sure.
