Weekend Wine Reviews #23

Jean-Marc Brocard, Domaine Saint Claire, Saint-Bri, Sauvignon, 2007, $14.99.  I know you’re shocked, we actually spent more than ten dollars on a bottle of wine.  Well, it was in honor of birthdays and mother’s day and probably some other day too. But you know what we learned, we maybe like cheap wine better.  We say:  citrus up front, grassy, light body, kind of watery, finishes very light.  Buy again: no.   And really, from a monetary standpoint, finding out that maybe you prefer cheap wines is not such a bad thing!

As a non wine snob, I believe you like what you like and price or someones else's opinion or rating are absolutely irrelavent.

The good wines made in France never seem to get out of their country...Plenty of good wine made in USA!

That sounds really summery. But hurrah for having cheap tastes! ;)

It was a shock to see something over $10! Makes me feel no so bad since there is nothing under $10 in my part of the world.

Taste is what's important. I think there are good expensive wines and crappy expensive wines. And the same goes for cheap wine. I'm sorry this was a dud!

You like what you like. I think the price of wines is just a reflection of what the winery thinks they can get for their wines.
