Game 4, Cavs vs Pistons. Suzanna orders Papa John's pizza and wings. I'm in a good mood. King James takes a victory and ties the series. Things are not looking good. This wine needs to open up. Contains a sharp of bite and lacks the magic fruit I look forward to meeting. I wouldn't give this another chance.

Borsao 2004 Tres Picos Garnacha
The Gims ate pizza, while I dined on a crispy oven fried chicken salad (before coming over). The first sip indicates that we need this to open up. It delivers a punch.
[5/12/06, 10:15pm] Suzanna passed out from dining at Los Pollitos II. Joe Gim and I watched the Nets make unforced errors and lose game 3 to the Heat. The wine did not deliver any relief from the painful loss.
[5/13/06, 10:20 am] It's time to finish the bottle. Suzanna is showering, so I take a sip. It smells like rubbing alcohol and still delivers a punch. That mysterious lady deserves a punch for lying to us. Never again.

Abadia Retuerta 2003 Rivola Estate Grown
Suzi returns from work and it's time for some vino. We opened this wine and it was a good idea. Smells of cherry and oak. The initial sip gives a smooth taste, with a tiny bite. This wine needs to open up a bit. I am starving!

Cartlidge & Browne 2005 Pinot Noir
It has a sudden spice which is like an unpleasant kick in the shin. Far from a smooth tasting pinot. Stay away from Cappacola and vino. However, Suzanna is preparing dinner. She is making penne with a vodka sauce, containing shrimp, peas, shittake mushrooms. This wonderful meal will help me overlook this subpar wine.
