    May 30, 2010 - smell was very sweet - taste was clearly that of a chard going bad - sweet and thick - someone held onto this one a tad too long before re-gifting

  • Harley1199 Does not like this wine:

    December 30, 2008 - Banana gelly sweets on palate; this is more I can bear from a chardo! Seriously speaking, after some bitter bark of lemons on the nose, this is an aussie I am not going to try again. Pairing a dozen of tiger-prawns. 05/01/09 Finally I have to change my opinion...this is nice, as cooking wine of course. A sweet chicken with vegetables (worthless, garlic, zucchini and carrot) in pseudo-chardo sauce mixed with Gato Negro too.

    Gominolas en boca; esto es más de lo que uno puede soportar de un chardonnay. En serio, después de aromas de corteza de limón amargo en nariz, este es un vino australiano que no voy a volver a probar. Maridó una docena de langostinos tigre. 5/1/09 Finalmente tengo que cambiar de opinión...este vino está bien, pero para cocinar. Un pollo dulce con vegetales (berenjena, ajo, calabacín y zanahoria en una salsa de un pseudo-chardo, mezcla también con el chileno Gato Negro.

    October 17, 2008 - I'm not a white wine drinker, but was given this. Okay, I'm no connoisseur, but I liked it. Very flavorful and drinkable, without being unpleasantly acidic like other whites I've had. I'd drink it again.

    July 22, 2008 - Holy mackrel!!!! What the hell they put in this I have no idea but at a guess I would start with cane sugar, diesel and whatever they found lying around in the kitchen. They then probably mixed it up with a big ladle in a boiling witches couldron and let it stand for a while in pretty much the same manner you did when playing with a chemistry set when you were a kid.

    After it cooled they then had a moment of clarity.

    "Hey, there are probably chimps out there stupid enough to pay money for this!!"
    "No! Surely not"
    "Dunno, lets give it a go - surely someone out there will buy it more than once"

    And thus it came to pass that what we I see before my eyes is a liquid that has been marketed, produced, bottled, distributed and retailed to some festering no-clue bar near you. And worse, people are buying it. Buying it as in giving away their hard earned cash in return for ..... this.

    Just think about it - there are cargo ships on the ocean waves as we speak shipping more of this stuff to our shores in a never ending conveyor belt of gloppy goo, with cash going in the opposite direction. Surely there must be a law against it. IT MUST BE STOPPED. Terrible.
