Francis Coppola Rosso Classic, 2004 Review

General Impression of Francis Coppola Rosso Classic, 2004

My view is strap a more fancy lable on it, put it in a boutique wine shop and sell it for 18 dollars a bottle and no one would even consider objecting to it. This is just a great tasting red wine with reasonable complexity that lets you enjoy it whether you are drinking a glass just to pass the time or having it with a full dinner.

This is a good fun wine you can afford to drink every day if you want to that will please your guests and make them feel spoiled.

Jenica Peak Zinfandel, 2004 Review

General Impression of Jenica Peak Zinfandel, 2004

The first thing you need to know about all Jenica Peak Wines is they are an exclusive private lable wine from Albertson's Grocery Store. This may bring up thoughts of the relationship of Charles Shaw (two buck Chuck) and Trader Joe's if so put it out of your mind these wines are to Charles Shaw what Mid Grade Mondavi is to Boones Farm.

This is the first Jenica Peak wine I have formaly reviewed and it was an exceptional one. Zinfandel being my favorite I am always looking out for sub ten dollar Zinfandels that are of good quality and I feel I have found a gem here. Easy drinking for a full flavored Zin at only 12.5% alochol by volume this one does not over power you but doesn't leave you wanting much either. I have been looking for a Red Zinfandel under 10 dollars that would stand toe to toe with Dancing Bull Zinfandel and I have found it.

Rex Goliath Giant 47 Pound Rooster Chardonnay Reviewed

General Impression of HRM Rex Goliath Giant 47 Pound Rooster Chardonnay

Well it is a big name and for a chardonnay and a sub 10 dollar one it is a big wine. It is certainly a bigger wine then many good and well liked chardonnays like say Kendall Jackson or similar. There is a good oak quality but the intensity of flavor makes it less pronounced then lighter oaked versions. If you only enjoy Chardonnays for the oak this many not be a perfect fit for you. That said I personally loved it.
