This blend of 20% Tannat (a grape originally from SW France), 30% Petit Verdot (a Bordeaux varietal) and 50% Lagrein was very nice. new record high for me. | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE MAY 5, 2008 Recession Wines - Wines Under $15 If you're in France, for example, and you exchange $100, you walk away with only 65 Euro, and that's before commissions and fees. 2005 Kuentz-Bas Alsace Blanc, $12, Kermit Lynch Imports (Blend of, in order, Sylvaner, Riesling and Pinot Blanc, Muscat).

| BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE MAY 6, 2008 Brooklynguy's Notes on Recession Wines Here are some thoughts on the other other wines I tasted: I love the 2006 Cassagnoles wine from the southwest of France, a rich, zesty, and well balanced blend of Gros Manseng, Ugni Blanc, and Colombard. It's a neat blend of mostly Sylvaner, but there is Riesling, Pinot Blanc, and even a bit of Muscat in there too. And it costs $10. | |
