Trader Joe's
Reserve Lot# 247 Lussac Saint-Emilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2020
Pop and pour through an aerator.
NOSE: Juicy blackberry and a little pine…the tiniest bit of light-roast coffee. Promising for a $10 wine.
TASTE: like the nose, with some nice bitter tannin and some cherry on the finish…started good but deteriorated with air (?) and acquired some generic cheap cherryish wine flavor…88. May try again. — 13 days ago

Les Baux-de-Provence Grenache Blend 2020
Château Suduiraut
Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2011
NOSE: coconut cream, custard, nilla wafers, grilled pineapple, a little mango. Smells like typical aged Suduiraut!
TASTE: the vanilla cookie is strong with this one - plus tres leches. 93.
Sauternes is one of my preferred pairings with pumpkin pie and whipped cream. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! — 7 days ago

Carte Noire Brut Cava Sparkling Blend
One-dimensional, bitter citrus pith (grapefruit, lemon, limes - I would have guessed extra brut if this were blind. But for $6…a sparkler that doesn’t taste like apple juice? That’s a good deal. 85. — a month ago

Someone else said “perfectly representative of the stereotype” and they were right … great big gobs of butter and oak. 89. — 5 days ago
