What kind of review is Wines.com looking for?
An acceptable sample review might look like the following: Please note: the name of the wine you're reviewing is automatically collected when you click the "Review" link for a particular wine. Also, a drop-down field is provided for assigning a rating to the wine (fair, good, excellent).
The Grgich Hills Estate, 2007 Estate Grown Chardonnay really helped to make my party a complete success! We served it with grilled shrimp and scallops and of course we started all that off by serving brie with some wonderful toasted pita wafers. My guests all raved about the wine (and the food too, yeah!). My best friend Sara noted that she’d found the wine to exhibit wonderful aromas of ripe peach, mango and tropical flowers; with a slight note of minerality. I added that the finish was smooth and never too buttery. I plan on revisiting this and trying other Grgich offerings next weekend. Personally recommend enjoying it with grilled shrimp and scallops – great with ours d'oeuvres too.
