It’s a wine that could go either way as far as sipping vs. dinner. Enough taste to enjoy, enough acidity/tannins for a dinner of your choice. And it’s a wine better than the Chardonnay version.

As ten dollar wines go, this one isn’t bad. It’s a bit short to nonexistent on the aroma department but pretty dependable otherwise. A wine that’s OK for sipping and maybe a light dinner too.

It’s a bit of an oddity. This wine strives to be more like a desert wine than a chardonnay. A nice change of pace if you are looking for such a wine. But it’s better suited to sipping than dinner

For seven dollars and a blended wine you could do a lot worse than this one. Certainly a better wine than the Joe Blow Chardonnay tasted earlier. I’ve not tasted anything quite like this since the Relax Red I had a while back. Enjoy some today!

Overall it’s a pleasant sipping wine and ok with a lighter dinner. I’m partial to lighter reds, and this one fits the bill!

Nice and spicy, like the young maiden it should be served to. Tart, tasty, nimble, and highly energetic; you could do much worse with a bed partner or a wine.

It’s a much better effort than their Chardonnay, which should be avoided at all costs. But this one is a nicely drinkable wine, and maybe even good for dinner too. An even better buy if you can get it on sale (like I did).

This product seems to work as advertised, and is much quieter than the Waring model tested earlier. Still not totally silent, but you could at least hold a conversation in the same room while this unit is operating. That’s a big plus for this model

A good port and more complex than the 10 year version, but frankly perhaps not worth the extra money you’ll spend on this.

I’m not the biggest Merlot fan, but three years in the bottle has seemed to really help this wine. The big, aggressive tannins you usually find in a Merlot largely muted in this wine, a distinct plus for me. Not bad for sipping, and probably would work OK for dinner too.

From the people who brought you those nice Rieslings, a red. It’s not a bad one either. The wine comes in a very cool looking red metal bottle (at least the 375ml version.)

It’s called “Best foot forward” and it really seems to be. Not to sweet, not too dry, not to citrus, not any off notes, in other words, a nice drinking wine. It’s another one of my “field tests.” It was the white wine available on American Airlines at 34,000 feet.

A somewhat atypical wine, without the citrus taste I find in other Blancs. It could be a nice change of pace.

OK, I’ll admit it, not cheap, even in the less than split (375 ml) size bottle. But oh, what a way to end a meal, or to start one.

Not a bad one. In fact, for $4, better than some Merlots I’ve tasted. It would be interesting to see if this wine improves in a year or two...
