So every week, I share a few of my red wine testimonials (usually from samples) and sampling notes in a "mini-review" format. They are indicated to become wacky, fun, as well as (mostly) easily-digestible evaluations of (usually) currently accessible glass of wines (visit here for the skinny on just how to read them), thus you can easily solve to the point and also choose if they're for you (or otherwise).
