Is it even physically possible for Yellowtail Chardonnay to be corked? There was a second bottle present, so we tasted that one too. | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE MARCH 27, 2007 Notes From the Dressner Real Wine Attack Tasting 2005 Jean Manciat Macon Vieille Vignes , price unknown (about $30) - old vine Chardonnay from the Maconnais, a Burgundian region known for value whites. Definitely a $15 beauty. 2005 Jean Manciat Macon Charnay Franclieu , $17 - Manicat's Chardonnay for younger drinking, fresh, vibrant, and delicious. Impossible in this venue. | | | | | | | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE APRIL 16, 2008 Polaner Spring Portfolio Tasting, 2008 definitely have not spent enough time at home with dinner and M. His 2006 Touraine Blanc Brin de Chèvre Menu Pineau smelled of citrus oils, smoke, and shoe polish, and tasted great! And the 06 Touraine Blanc Buisson Pouilleux Sauvignon Vielle Vignes smelled like the Menu Pineau, but tasted like Sauvignon Blanc, in a way. | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE OCTOBER 17, 2007 Sauvignon Blanc - a Mini Blind Tasting Happily for consumers, there are many producers making great wine in Touraine, Cheverny and other parts of the Loire, many of the wines at this price. This one, like all Cheverny, is actually a blend, with about 10% Chardonnay in the mix. That's a fun thing to do on a summer evening though, so no complaints. Another time. | |
