Preamble to Tasting Reports:
The reports that follow are written with the software program
WINETASTER®. (1) Unless
specifically stated, all wines are tasted blind. Tasters know which
wines are being tasted, but the original labels on the bottles are
replaced with "A," "B," "C," and so on. (2) Comments attached to
tasting results represent a group consensus unless attribution is given
to a specific individual. (3) We will be happy to post the
tasting results of anyone who provides us with the "html" file
automatically generated by the report generator in the WINETASTER®
software program.
Since January 2020, all reports have been generated by WineTaster 3 an updated version of the WINETASTER® program for Apple devices.
As of January 2012, the Tasting Reports have been substantially expanded by the addition of some
notes that have surfaced from the pre-1998 era. The notes from 1986 to 1998 are often incomplete
and thus many of the tastings that took place in that period cannot be included. We include here
only those tastings that careful study has determined have complete notes documenting them.
We retain the custom of listing reports in order of increasing longevity. Since the earliest report
prior to the inclusion of the newly discovered ones is numbered Report 1, we adopt the comvention of numbering
the newly included reports with negative numbers; thus the most recent "newly discovered" report will
be numbered Report -2, the one before that as Report -3, etc. Note that there is no Report -1.
