Low levels of brettanomyces have been said to positive affects, while high levels negative, on vino. Wherever my favorites fit onto this low-high scale, I'm certain that no two people have the same optimal taste points. That's the true beauty of vino... There's a bottle out there for everyone! A toast and thanks for your comment, my friend. :)Chuckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02343311167170231734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8307640800965799426.post-76967032337484753922012-10-17T07:11:06.537-04:002012-10-17T07:11:06.537-04:00"However, I detected my favorite red wine sme..."However, I detected my favorite red wine smell.
