This weekend I tried “Delicato Family Vineyards Chardonnay 2000″
It was a nice californian styled (and not too expensive) chardonnay with a bit buttery taste. It was great with grilled salmon. 🙂

Crozes-Hermitage
We had a Crozes-Hermitage 2001 from producer Moillard-Grivot.
This wine is from a district in the Rhone valley with the same name. From this valley the grapes are usually Syrah.
The wine tasted and smelled nicely. Together with the wine we had lamb with potato sallad, and the combination worked fine. 🙂
(The wine gave me a black tounge, but not anyone else… strange…) 😛
You can find this wine at bolaget.
Tarapacá La Cuesta Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah 2000
Yesterday I tasted Tarapacá La Cuesta Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah 2000
The wine is from Maipo/Chile
Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah
When I opened the bottle I could smell the C.S. grapes without dipping my nose into it. The color was deep red/blue and it kept that color all the way to the edge of the glass. The wine tasted like a rich C.S. wine with a bit of roughness from the Syrah. Afterward my toungue was all blue… 😛
Yeah… I liked it. 🙂
You can find this wine at at bolaget.
Gallo Sonoma County Chardonnay 1998
Yesterday I tried a “Gallo Sonoma County Chardonnay 1998”. It was quite different from the (Chablis style) chardonnays that I am used to. It was a very nice fruity wine with a bit nutty and a bit smoked smell and taste. 🙂
Naoussa Boutari 1999
Yesterday I tasted Naoussa Boutari 1999
The wine is from Greece.
Grape: Xinomavro
It had a very nice smell, but it was a bit thin. 😐
