Tasting notes

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

I've just posted a tasting note and noticed that some recent tasting notes have been posted with titles that don't follow the requested format (that format being: YEAR SHIPPER TYPE, such as 1977 Taylor Vintage Port).

Is the requested format still needed for the indexing of the tasting notes or have we moved on from needing this standard title?

Perhaps I made a mistake. It happens.

It wasn't just you, and my question was genuine - is the format of tasting note title still important?

The TN index is now made by software from JacobH. And one day it might have a different author again. So presume so.

I have edited the offending titles and requested a TN update from JGH.
