Maybe She's Shy

there’s a musical

note

on the back of her tongue

never sung

but it tastes

like vintage pauillac bordeaux

if you let her

do the talking

*The wines of Pauillac are rich, full bodied and tannic, while gracefully combining elegance with power coupled with complexity.  They have the ability to age and evolve for decades. It has been said the best Pauillac wines taste like “An iron fist in a velvet glove.”  The Wine Cellar Insider.
