||||||
| tastes kinda like a VA wine, a bit of chambourcin bite to it. slight-to-good chance we were supposed to save this for jon's return. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| whoa texas wine. big, like the state. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| almost too sweet and too creamy. the french oak comes through on the finish. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| not as good as some viogniers i've tried (jeff, veritas) but still solid. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| tasted more like a cab sav than a merlot. as such, i liked it. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Excellent wine esp considering the price (at the fairly pricey restaurant). | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| you honestly need to plug your nose to enjoy this wine. the taste is obviously cheap, but berries and drinkable, if only you could avoid the nose. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| kinda bitey. and my grade may be biased b/c i am not the biggest fan of merlots. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| it was on sale. would be a perfect 2nd bottle considering the price + taste combo. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| balanced | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| complex. nice nose. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| thick, juicy malbec. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| big, thick cab sav. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| disappointing among its company (the case of 12), but not a bad wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| didnt let it breath, so tasted really concentrated at first. after an hour, it relaxed and softened. a good balance of berries and tobacco, acid and tannins, a developed wine that can be drunk now. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| watered down. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| very pleasant palate. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| a truly balanced wine. i guess i've been drinking so many cheap reds overrun with tannins lately, it's easy to appreciate the balance. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| excellent value. disappointed that my mouth was too burnt to truly savor this wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| i'm sick, so this log shouldn't hold much weight | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| compared to the earlier bottle, this wine was incredibly thin. even as a second bottle for the night, not a strong showing. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| disappointed by the nose (or lack thereof) and the overall typicality of the wine. nothing really stood out to make me want to buy this wine again. but by no means a "bad" wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| excellent value, but i think i am still acquiring a taste for shiraz's. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| bitter at first. gotta let it breathe. once so, it really opens up. floral palate replaces the bitterness. soft almost buttery finish. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| solid for the price; a textbook value wine. soft on the palate. loved the finish. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| nothing distinguishable from a cheap red to make me want to buy this wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| different. i think b/c it tasted "cold" throughout. made it hard to distinguish any other flavors or aromas. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| medium body, easy to drink. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| a juicy italian wine. lighter than a chianti. my first time, i think the smells of the restaurant overwhelmed the nose. second time through, the nose was HUGE and COMPLEX! | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| first greek wine, definitely different. too light for my liking. perhaps because we drank it at 11a. not sure. | ||||||||
