We uncorked a bottle of the 2005 Citra today. Not very interesting, but better than the 2005 Farnese. Sigh.

I’ll take not very interesting for $6.95 a bottle, as long as it’s drinkable…
That’s kind of my approach, too.
I shouldn’t complain. But the 2004 Farnese was actually quite good… I wonder if it’s a vintage issue or suppliers realizing they could get better $$ for their grapes.
