An idiosyncratic journal of wines I buy from a mix of Internet sources and retailers in the Northern Virginia/D.C. area. Mostly inexpensive and moderately-priced stuff, reflecting my frugal New England roots. Cent anni!

UPDATE: 2010 Thunevin-Calvet "Cuvee Constance" COTES DU ROUSSILLON-VILLAGES (Southwest France)
This wine, which I previously reviewed several months ago, has softened and opened up appreciably. It now warrants an A-. Fragrant, intense, very linear, loads of intense stony minerals. Very clingy flavor persistence. I have one bottle left, which I'll try to hold off on drinking for at least another year.
