Delor Corbieries 2000

Date: 4 November 2005

Colour medium red with a clean rim. The nose was red vinegar with just a hint of flowery notes if you have a vivid imagination. Alcohol content was stated as 12.5%, it felt lean and without depth. I was unable to taste any fruit, and there was no finish to speak of. 30 minutes later, the wine smelled like weak mineral turpentine after the original scent had gone. It now tasted like rubbing alcohol and should be used as such.

Rating: suitable for cooking
