| high tannins, leather/wood nose, dry/alcoholic taste. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
|
|

|
||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| perhaps the lack of nose was due to a low drinking temperature. still, the wine lacked body and substance. almost tasted watered-down. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| recommended by alex, a solid spanish red, but nothing like last night's - which we forgot to log :( | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| a very bitey wine, yet diluted. tasted its price. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| i think i finally get terrior. and i like virginia's. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| big and juicy | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| bigger than the french wine earlier, but still tasted "economically priced" | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| almost tasted watered down at first, but then it was just light on the palate, but tasty. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| surprisingly sweet for a red, but not at all cloying. pleasantly different, it stands out among a crowd. very drinkable. would definitely buy again. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| absolutely atrocious. even as the second bottle of the night. yet not quite an F. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| the nose was off, but a simple, drinkable, enjoyable wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| deathly strong, almost like vinegar. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| Mondavi is one of the winemakers on this one. I enjoyed how it wasn't overwhelming on the palate. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| yum | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| full-bodied. smooth. more complex than the wines we typically drink. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| definitely older and more complex than most wines we've drank recently. showed signs of age and elegance. too light/weak on flavor, but then i may be misplacing the blame on the bottle, instead of the varietal. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| overly light, not enough to back it up in flavor. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| uh, a little too late for this one? | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| probably cost between $5 and $10. weak body, almost watery. some vinegar on the nose. overall, unimpressive. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| eh, fine, nothing special, but acceptable considering it was under $10 | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| needed time to breathe, probably best decanted. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| nice big enjoyable chianti. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| overbearing nose misleading, fairly smooth wine. good balance of fruit and tannins. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| way overpriced (as to be expected at a DC hotel). | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| i really liked the blend here. | ||||||||
