2005 Château Bonnet Cuvée Divinus
3/10/2013 - StlAndy Does not like this wine: 78 Points
The taste of this wine was okay. Smooth fruit but I couldn't get past the smell. Wife says she smelled vomit and I don't disagree. Very pungent and off-putting. I like wine with a little brett but this was beyond anything I would find pleasant. It's not an expensive wine and it's possible that this was just a bad bottle. It might be a while before I try one of the others in my cellar.

2004 Domus Vitae Brunello di Montalcino Riserva
1/4/2013 - StlAndy Likes this wine:
This is my first sangiovese and brunello so I'm not going to rate the wine because I don't know what to compare it to. With that said, I really enjoyed this wine. Drank from a magnum that we brought to our favorite steak joint (double decanted before bringing). Notes are from memory. Nose of black fruit and oak. Taste was different than I expected. It was dryish but not tannic. In fact it seemed like a sweet merlot. Definitely fruity. Attack remained middle of the tongue and the finish was not overly long. Wife liked it very much. Thought it was good but don't know how this compares to others . . . . guess I'll just keep drinking more!
