Speaking of "plonk"...

Thanks for the offer Foodie...the meal would be paella & the wine Spanish red, but can't do airfare for you at the moment [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img]

IK, maybe I've missed the point, but I believe I'm lookin' for a nondescript jug red WITHOUT strong flavors. The idea is to add selected flavors (e.g. drops of vanilla, a few whole cloves, or other) to "spike" a certain flavor so that it can be smelled & tasted. In addition, 2-3 bottles of real wine will be poured for enjoyment & for the purpose of distinguishing specific aromas/flavors.

The problem is that I know nothin' 'bout jug wines, thus the request. cp
