Spier Sauvignon Blanc 2007

November 24, 2008 by ramsay · Leave a Comment 


On the nose I get a little bit of lemon and grass.

The taste I get more of the lemon and grass with a touch of seltzer water texture.  This wine is not bubbly but you get that taste and feel to it.  There is maybe a little pear on the front of the palate but the finish kinda reminds me of cleaning solvent followed by a little bit of sweetness.  Not much good going on here.

I had this wine last night and tonight with the same results so I’m pretty confident in my opinions.  This wine is very smooth and drinkable but its not my favorite.

Price: $10
Varietal: Sauvignon Blanc
County: South Africa
Cheap Wine Rating: 81

Summerfield Merlot 2006

November 20, 2008 by ramsay · Leave a Comment 

If I had only three words to sum up this wine I’d say Easy, light, strawberry.  And really there isn’t much else to this wine.  Its nice and easy to drink and there isn’t anything in it that stands out as being something I don’t like.  Just having a wine with no negatives is a pretty good thing. Its rare that when good qualities are absent there are not bad qualities in the wine that make it undrinkable.
If you are looking for a nice regular light wine with a hint of strawberry then this might be for you.  Don’t expect to be super excited by this wine though.  Really you never should expect to much from a $6 wine though, right?

Price:  $6
Vintage: 2006
Varietal: Merlot
Cheap Wine Rating: 85

Buy it here:  At your local grocery store or wine store – or online at: Winerz.com
