WASHINGTON — Reviewing wines from a winery you have not visited in a long time is like reconnecting with an old friend from high school. Within minutes, you are reacquainted and feel like it’s been five minutes — not five years — since you’ve last seen each other.
There is a high degree of comfort in those moments — a sense that time has somehow been preserved. This is the exactly the way I feel when I open certain bottles of wine. It’s like visiting an old friend: reliable, fun to spend time with and always gone too soon.
