A Few Chardonnay Questions

[cheeps]

The wines I tasted were from Spain and used Garnacha (Grenache) grapes. There were 4 different ones, altho I can't recall what ones they were now. I think I still have the sheet that listed them at home somewhere. I did have a Merlot once that had some Grenache in it also and I didn't care for that one either so I figured I just don't like wines made with Grenache grapes.

I have to say that one thing I've learned already is that some wines just don't taste right on their own - they are much, much better with food, so I'm wondering how many of the wines that I say I don't care for I would actually end up liking if they were paired with the proper food.
