Wine review: Yosemite Road Chardonnay NV
The Wine Curmudgeon —
Authority: 124
The Wine Curmudgeon really, really wanted to like this wine, which is one of the two, new $4 private label wines from 7-Eleven . But, unfortunately, it tastes like $4 wine. This means the Yosemite Road ( purchased ) doesnt have enough varietal character -- the green apple and pear flavors that chardonnay is supposed ...2 days ago -

· Chateau la Freynelle 2007 ($15, purchased ): This white Bordeaux has a bit more citrus than in the old days, but the minerality is there, and the semillion adds a nice, rich touch. · White Hall Vineyards Viognier 2008 ($17, sample ): Virginia winemakers continue to impress with viognier, and this wine ...2 weeks ago -

This wine ($10, purchased ) is close ...3 weeks ago -

The Wine Curmudgeon —
Authority: 124

Its a welcome alternative to chardonnay, it grows almost anywhere that wine is produced, and it can be used to make exceptional cheap wine. Which is one of the reasons for being for Vinum Cellars , which makes the CNW (about $10, purchased ) – or ...3 weeks ago -
Wine of the week: McWilliams Riesling 2007
The Wine Curmudgeon —
Authority: 124
Long before Australia was famous for shiraz and high alcohol, or even livestock wines, it made riesling. And it wasn’t riesling that others would necessarily recognize, but a typically Aussie version: Dry, with what can only be described as a not unpleasant petrol aroma, and some lime fruit.
