An empty bottle originally photographed in 2016, so presumably this was a wine best drunk young. An edit of an earlier version. As I mature (like wine, but maybe not the 2015 Malbec Reserve) I become more complex, more demanding. I take on greater character. I even edit photographs now. As Old Owl has remarked elsewhere, "I'm constantly surprised at the way we can, as we gain experience, look at a photograph we deemed to be a failure and discover a picture worth creating. This is also a damned good reason to never delete so-called failures." I looked this wine up on the internet and read the following evaluation: "Gorgeous nose exhibiting an array of aromas such as peppery mulberry, sour and black cherry, violet and a subtle touch of wild strawberry jam. The palate is full, complex, with a fantastic energy and bursting with ripe dark plums; tannins are impressively silky and freshness is amazing." I did not drink any of this wine and cannot therefore offer any personal opinion beyond the usefulness of the empty bottle as a subject for photography. I nevertheless wonder how fermented grapes can smell like other fruits. I once heard Jilly Goolden compare some wine or other to petrol. Wow!
