Tasted 09/05/11 w Morrisons Italian Pinot Grigio NV, Venezie £4.49 Green aroma, with a hint of sulphur. Foul taste. The worst sort of PG. Bitter, soluble aspirin taste with no fruit. Jeeps. Made by Cavit 12.0% Pinot Grigio 100% Morrisons Orvieto Classico 2010, Umbria £4.99 Neutral nose. Flabby taste. Nobody at home. Made by Piccini 12.0% Grechetto 90%, Procanico 10%, Morrisons Best Gavi 2010, Piemonte £7.49 A little ripe fruit on the nose. Some fruit, some savoury nose, a little grapefruit pith on the finish. OK, but the Ttd is a lot better. Made by Araldica 12.0% Cortese 100% Morrisons Muscadet 2010, Val de Loire £4.29 Little on the nose. Lemony acidity, fresh. Little more. Made by GCF GROUP 12.0% Melon de Bourgogne 100 % Morrisons Touraine Sauvignon 2010, Loire £6.45 Elder and some cat on the nose. Tangy, bright and interesting. Good length. Good, altogether. Made by Chainier 12.0% Sauvignon Blanc 100% Morrisons Best Pouilly Fume 2009, Loire £10.99 An oddly ripe nose for Loire sauvignon. Almost like a pudding wine. Assuming it's not botrytis. Lovely and dry in the mouth and very tangy and full of flavour. Lasts well. Good. Made by Pierre Fouassier 13.0% Sauvignon Blanc 100% Morrisons Best Sancerre 2009, Loire £10.99 The nose has the same ripeness as the Pouilly Fume. Made by the same producer. This is bright and interesting with some ripe, almost tropical, fruit. Good. Made by Pierre Fouassier 13.5% Sauvignon Blanc 100% Morrisons French Chardonnay NV, Languedoc £4.15 Little on the nose. It's a dry white wine. Not bad and certainly good for the money. Made by Jean Jean 13.0% Chardonnay 100% Morrisons Petit Chablis2009, Burgundy£7.85 Mmmm. Nice nose. Creamy but refreshing. Very inviting. Full-flavoured and very nice indeed. Good price. * Made by Union des Viticulteurs de Chablis 12.5% Chardonnay 100% Morrisons Best Chablis 2009, Burgundy £9.15 Clean, green zingy nose. Bone dry, almost austere. Definitely one for the purists, but I have some impure tastes and prefer the Petit Chablis. Made by Union des Viticulteurs de Chablis 12.5% Chardonnay 100% Morrisons Macon Villages 2009, Burgundy £6.19 Nice, clean, unoaked chardonnay nose. A touch of bitterness on the palate. Disappointing. Made by Vignerons des Grandes Vignes 12.5% Chardonnay 100% Morrisons Mosel Riesling 2009, Mosel £6.99 A tiny hint of sweet grapeyness on the nose. Luscious, sweet taste with a grapefruity twang. Good. Made by Reh Kendermann GmbH 8.5% Riesling 100% Morrisons Best Auslese 2009, Mosel £8.49 Little on the nose. Some weight of ripe, sweet fruit. Also green and refreshing. Chilled, on the patio. Mmm. Made by Reh Kendermann GmbH 8.0% Riesling 100% Italia Grillo 2010, Sicily £6.79 Ripe, but spicy, on the nose. Fat and southern tasting. Made by Adria 13.0% Grillo100% Les Signatures Mont Tauch Picpoul de Pinet 2010, South of France £7.99 Not a great deal on the nose. A touch of fizz and pithy taste. Savoury and rather grown up. Made by Mont Tauch 12.5% Piquepoul 100% Vouvray Clos Palet 2009, Loire £7.35 Lemon balm nose. Off-dry or sweeter and rather nice. Slightly pithy finish. Good. Made by Chainier 12.5% Chenin Blanc 100% Pouilly Fuisse Vieilles Vignes 2008, Burgundy £14.99 Deep golden colour. Almost nothing on the nose. Watery, lacking verve and short. Made by Vignerons des Grandes Vignes 12.5% Chardonnay 100% |
