Disappointing is an interesting word choice. Not that your palate changed, but the wines disappointed. How so?

Notarpanaro! I've had it a few times but I like the balance of the Salice Salentino Riserva more. I used to drink a bundle of Taurino's SS Rsv and couldn't find it for the better part of a decade. Just found a source and bought a case of a newer vintage. Still quite enjoyable for me.Jenise wrote:Jim Grow wrote:For me, Zinfandel and I used to drink a lot of Dr. Cosimo Turino Salice Salintino (sp.) but so long ago I have forgotten where in Italy, maybe Pulia and how to spell the producers name. also German Riesling Auslese as I have gone over to the Sauternes end of desert wines mostly.
Cosimo Taurino from Puglia. I was once a big fan too but we got a lot of it in Alaska where I lived when I had my first one. In fact. Dr. Taurino came to Alaska and I got to meet him (tallest Italian man I've ever seen). Since moving south, the only Taurino I've run into was in Bill Spohn's cellar, the top of the line version called something like Patron.
