Will continue posting only here going forward, and may post some old Vivino reviews for context.
Expect lots of #spanishwine reviews, plus some assorted stuff.

Lol. Hey AI checkers, you're not taking my freaking —'s away. Before AI existed I had set up keyboard combinations to make them, because that's how I write.
So this is why they say it's 100% AI. Because 6 emdashes, 1 triad, and 1 ai phrase ("relentless"). Fucking hell.
At an Italian restaurant and I’m not very experienced with Italian wines or pairings so I took a photo of the wine list and asked @winesky.app sommelier for a recommendation.
I love this app and how easy it makes it for us amateurs

Listening to today's episode (excellent as usual) and they talk about accusations of things written by AI and name a tool I'd not heard of (Pangram). They claim it's pretty reliable. I feed it my piece from @liberalism.org this week that I *know* is human written because *I* wrote it...

Winesky now supports web push notifications for analysis and sommelier requests!
On iOS, you'll first need to add it to your home screen — Apple makes that non-obvious. Instructions for both iOS and Android here:

Enjoy!

Barbaresco Vallegrande by Ca' del Baio (2022) - 4 ⭐
Vanilla, black currant, plums, fresh cherries, cinnamon. Another bottle I need to find, because I did not get to appreciate it enough considering the amounts of wines we tried.
Red Wine from Piedmont

Mille e una Notte by Donnafugata (2017) - 4 ⭐
Black berry, vanilla, black currant. Another one I did not do justice to, but good thing I take notes.

Montevertine by Società Agricola Montevertine s.s. (2020) - 4½ ⭐
Cherry, coffee, toffee, prunes, cherry, strawberries, something herbal that I was too gone to name.
It’s a wine you could rate on “Porco Dio”s per minute from the Italians tasting it.
