I’m new here. [imnewhere.gif] I hope this is the right place for this tasting note.

TN: Domaine Edward, Aux Mains D’Argent, 1990.

An older offering, but a good one. The presentation is almost gothic in its darkness. Some green/topiary notes in the aroma, but it shows amazing deppth on the palate. The use of stainless means this baby was not over-oaked. I did detect a tiny bit of cutting acidity on the finish, accompanied by lingering freshly-sliced pain grille.

Tasted Friday, March 13th.

You’ll notice that I made p*in grille a censored word - it now reads ‘toast’.

In any case, congratulations on opening wine already!! You go!!!

I’m so embarrassed. I really have been trying to learn the ropes.

I had also heard there was less censorship on this board than on some other boards (can’t remember the names, though). But, rules are rules.

I’ll try harder.

Cute, Jacki…cute.

Have some more toast!

Thank you, Sir. May I have another?

Too subtle, Bob.
