Yuk. Even after two alcohol-free years, this did not taste good to me. Like suckin' on a toothpick as they say. It was served to me at a party; I'd sure never buy this myself!

Get Four Vines Naked Chardonnay for a few more bucks. Don't worry, you don't have to be to drink it!

I went to a bunko party where the hostess served Turning Leaf wine--made an instant cola drinker out of me. It also made me wish I had offered to provide the wine for the evening.

Last night I/we tried a Chilean Chard, "Rumba Sur" That I picked up for $399/btl. Did we expect much...NO. What we got was an unimpressive nose, but a very nice, smooth non-oaky, palate lingering surprise. Sometime you just get lucky.

Where did you get the Rumba Sur??? We tried every database we have available at the shop, and Rumba Sur doesn't show up on any of them.

Methinks he's talking about Cono Sur. From scouting around Google it looks like it is fun to Rumba with.
