					<description><![CDATA[Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow. At this late date, it is likely your wine for the great American harvest feast is set. Some notes about serving it. Almost all red wines, and some whites, rosé, and sparklings, benefit from decanting. But which ones and for how long? • Light-body reds (pinot noir, gamay)—20-30 minutes. • Medium-body reds <a class="read-more" href="https://www.gusclemensonwine.com/decanting-guidelines-11-24-2021/">Read More</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Deep ruby color; cherry, blackcurrant, plum, violets on the nose; black cherry, plum, blackcurrant, pepper on the palate. Dry; surprisingly graceful tannins given that this is a left-bank Bordeaux-style blend of cabernet sauvignon, petite verdot, and cabernet franc. All Texas-grown grapes. As is typical in the Texas wine industry, some—or most, or all—of the grapes <a class="read-more" href="https://www.gusclemensonwine.com/inwood-estates-chateau-marie-larose-texas-red-wine-2017/">Read More</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Deep ruby color; black cherry, blackcurrant, graphite, lavender on the nose; black cherry, blackcurrant, blackberry, plum, mocha, oak, spice on the palate. Dry; silky but significant tannins. The maker advises a 24-hour decant, which may be overkill, but decanting clearly is called for both to smooth this out and because there is significant sediment.

					<description><![CDATA[Deep ruby color; black cherry, blackberry, fig, leather on the nose; black cherry, redcurrant, blackberry, blueberry, vanilla, chocolate on the palate. Dry; tannins and acidity are in balance, framed by significant—but not overdone—oak thanks to 30 months in barrel. A substantial percentage had to be used wood. Medium body. Dense, serious wine.

Dry; smooth tannins; ripe, juicy fruits on simple palate. Light acidity. Made with organically grown nero d’Avola, the signature red grape of Sicily.

On the other hand, bodacious bottles have a clear marketing and psychological impact. The marketing–psychological element may be irrational. It does not mean it is not real.

					<description><![CDATA[Pale gold color; yellow apple, honeysuckle, lemon, pear on the nose; yellow apple, white peach, citrus, lemon on the palate. Dry; smooth with background of tartness. Relaxed acidity. Some oak and butter, but nothing to complain about. Light body.
