Default cheap white wine -review

Last night I decided to have some wine and had the following four bottles of Chardonnay. Info as follows:

Barefoot Cellars - $6.99
http://www.barefootwine.com/californ...hardonnay.html

It was surprisingly good for $7. It was voted a 'best buy' at a competition in Chicago and if you look at their site, you'll see its won some other awards. Not too strong of a taste; a good, cheap wine that you can buy several bottles of to just have around if you want a few cold glasses on a hot day.



Jacob's Creek - $7.99
Also a pretty good find for $8. A light, more crispy taste than the Barefoot. I'll be getting more of this in the future.

Forest Glen - $9.99
Ugh. That says enough. I was disappointed by this as it was supposed to be a great find. Tasted almost metallic. Too bad.



Edna Valley - $14.99
I'm a big fan of this wine. Its not too light, somewhat "oakey", but not overpowering. A great find, and worth having a couple bottles chilling in the fridge.

And to get this over with, yes I like sex with men, and no I am not posting this in the Quiet Zone. I don't want to know what books/movies/poems/dreams/flowers/cats/clouds this makes me think of...
