Don't you find it hard to
remember the name of that good wine you drank last weekend when it is
time to by a new bottle? Well, I figured it would help with a list, so
here is mine. These are all fairly cheap wines and I'm not much of a
wine connoisseur, so
ymmv.
 My
favorite right now;
Rapitalá Nero D'Avola. This is an Italian red wine with a bouquet of
ripe fruit. It has a balanced and intense flavour.
 Dreams,
a good halfdry white wine. I was a bit skeptic at first because it has a
rather low percentage of alcohol (8.5%) but I think it is to its
advantage.
 Casillero
del Diablo, Cabernet Sauvignon 2005, Chile. A red wine rich in taste and
quite spicy.
Perhaps a bit too spicy and hard for my taste.
 Casillero
del Diablo, Carmenere 2005, Chile. The same rich and spicy red wine as
as the Cabernet Sauvignon above. This one was also a bit too spicy for
my taste.
 Graham
Beck, 2006 Chardonnay Viognier. An excellent South African dry white
wine with a flavor of peach and pear. Really worth its price. Goes very
well with smoked salmon. I can really recommend this.
 Infinitus,
2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Tempranillo. 3L bag in box. A very good Spanish
wine which is also one of the cheapest in the "Systembolaget".
Despite its very low price it is a really good wine that I can whole
heartily recommend. It has a fruity, slightly spicy taste with element
of barrel, plum, black currant and vanilla. It is supposed to go best
with the Sunday roast, but can also be enjoyed with lighter dishes.
 Rocky
Creek, Chardonnay 2005. An American white wine in a 3L bag in box. It is
a dry, very fruity wine with taste of apple, mango, lime and vanilla.
Serve with fish or light meat dishes. This is a good wine which I
certainly can buy again.
 Chill
Out Sunset Cabernet Sauvignon. A good all-round rather spicy red wine,
rich in taste. Perfect for barbecue.
 Grand
Sud Merlot Vin de pays d'Oc 2005 red wine. A good wine which doesn't
ruin you with a nice round taste of small red fruit and black cherries.
Goes well with most dishes or just by itself.
 Oude
Kaap Klassiek Rood 2004 red wine. An ordinary light wine with fruity
taste, good with pasta dishes, tacos/burritos or read meat.
 Castillo
de Madax Monastrell Tempranillo Jumilla 2004. A Spanish red wine with a
nice round flavor of ripe berry fruit. Very good with barbecue and meat
dishes.
 Inc Merlot Bonarda,
a red wine with a rich taste of herbs, red berries, liquorish and
vanilla. A very good wine that works fine both on it's own and with meat
dishes.
 Selvarossa
Salice Salentino red wine. A
fruity, spicy wine with element of barrel. Simply a good wine.
 Rapitala
Alcamo white wine. A very good dry white wine which I will definitely
buy again if I can find it.
 Drostdy
Hof cabernet sauvignon 2006. An excellent red wine that can be enjoyed
by itself or with a meat or pasta dish. I think I like it because of it
is very fruity with a slight taste of vanilla. |
