I contacted the winemaker and he ran a test on the wine. VA was low but di-sulphides were present.<br />The lesson for me was that sometimes di-sulphides (or worse) can present like VA and can fool the taster.<br />I am not suggesting that is the case here but I thought my story interesting in view of your experience.<br />Best, JimFlorida Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08425683028082383050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-272356477626694495.post-80545007996293003552009-11-25T10:18:09.135-08:002009-11-25T10:18:09.135-08:00Scott (that is you, right?)-

One bottle with VA and another without - very unusual.<br />Best, JimFlorida Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08425683028082383050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-272356477626694495.post-87268332932709425882009-11-23T14:57:50.075-08:002009-11-23T14:57:50.075-08:00I second you on that Grezeaux.
