Edit: actually the more I thought about this one, I would get a chuckle at you and my brother being caught passing a baggie of an unknown substance in a Harrisburg parking garage, because you could explain what was in the baggie. But my niece and your daughter wouldn't have a chance. I can see the headlines, "new tannin derived drug shows up in mid-state schools, news at 11".
Finally got a taste. It's drinkable, but very young without much in the way of distinguishing characteristics. I'm hoping to rack the wine off the oak this weekend (it's been 6 weeks); and give it a bit o' finishing tannin for good measure. After another month, I'll bottle.
I did 12 375's for a blackberry I bottled a couple of weeks back, and I just walked over and counted only 7. Guess we are liking the blackberry already!
Nice! I had a WV Malbec last night... It was pleasant, but thin and light. More like a Pinot than a Malbec.
Waiting for my wines to be ready is killing me.
