  1. @Yaffler Thanks Mark.
  2. @Yaffler No, that's not it, this was a natural one piece cork. I am going to blame TCA until I can figure out what else it could be.
  3. @sommeliersara @yaffler Thanks for your help! Cheers.
  4. @Yaffler Yes, all too familiar with TCA, can usually pick up at low levels. This wine was clearly not right, just wish I knew why.
  5. @PoivreMedia In Alberta Jack Daniels is through Charton Hobbs, probably same in BC. Sortilege is a small agency in AB, can't help there.
  6. @Yaffler I've only tasted this flaw in natural cork btls so I'm thinking TCA. Don't think it was sulphur or SO2 maybe storage or shipping?
  7. @SommelierSara No, not filmy or cloudy. At first taste seemed OK, but finish was short and metallic.
  8. @SommelierSara Thanks Sara. Do you know what it is called or what causes it?
  9. @Yaffler No, first time for that wine but familiar with the winery. Malbec from Mendoza. Have tasted that flaw b4 but not sure what it is.
  10. Wine fault question - recently had a wine with subdued fruit and a metallic finish, seemed flawed. Was this mild TCA or another flaw?
  11. @Yaffler Thanks Mark.
  12. @Yaffler Looking at your WSET courses in Calgary, who is instructing level 2 in Jan 2010?
  13. I will be pouring @spyvalleywine at the Rocky Mountain Wine & Food Festival in Calgary this weekend, stop by and say hello.
  14. @JJBuckleyWines Thanks for the shout-out Paige! Hope you & Chuck are settling in to the new digs.
  15. In a Sonoma state of mind..Sonoma County Vintners tasting this afternoon, finishing up with an IPA from @lagunitasT
  16. @LizzieLuzza Thanks, will keep you posted. Cheers.
  17. @LizzieLuzza Where can I get a list of participating wineries for Sonoma in the City for Calgary?
  18. Thanks @SbonnerABV I don't know if Paul @spyvalleywine is heading to Vancouver as well, if there are I will post them. @libertywinespg ?
