Tasting wine all day long sometimes is hard. I'm not complaining but, occasionally, it makes me sleepy even if I've done the proper amount of spitting. I'm already a two-a-day-latte drinker so more caffeine is not the answer. My incentive? Leave the wines I'm most excited about to the end, even if they're not the biggest or even the reddest (as in they might be white :) but, sometimes, (for instance -- yesterday) it required effort to taste through all the fruity, high-alcoholic wines and I longed to taste my incentive wine...SAVIGNY-LÈS-BEAUNE 1er Cru "Aux Guettes 2007 Domaine A. Machard de Gramond. True to experience...Not Big, Not Bold BUT Beautiful! And, earthy. And, refined. And, elegant. There are perfect occasions for the big and bold but after a hard day's work, give me the "pretty" and the "easy."
