However, I think you can probably throw most 10$ and under "manipulated" wines into the same bucket. So stylistically, I don't see them as being all that different. They're generally commercial wines, with non-indigenous yeasts, purchased fruit, big blends, etc. That means they're fair game for comparison. The only reason why I even brought up the Perrin is because it's a well made wine under 10$ that has regional typicity. This Ambas could just as well be Yellow Tail or something...Generally, I think the only valid question with wine is is it good or bad? That varies from person to person. Comparing New World/Old World is definitely fair game in my book...I just happen to have a preference in one direction.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01194752605118852057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3847240398628647648.post-79012191540718567792010-02-03T08:09:51.349-08:002010-02-03T08:09:51.349-08:00First I think it's impressive to make a bottle...First I think it's impressive to make a bottle of wine for $8, no matter what it is. The 07 Perrin Cote du Rhone is fine, but in my opinion can't be compared stylistically to Malbec. Malbec is far richer with more fruit extraction, and lacks the lean mid-palate of OW Grenache. Comparing the new world and the old world isn't really fair either. I think both you and I prefer restrained fruit styles and the OW, and this isn't my style of wine per se, generally Malbec is too fruity and strong, but I found this one very pleasant for the category it represents. I'm trying to be more open minded afterall!!!!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09516676133478187711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3847240398628647648.post-34681985272774721932010-02-02T22:09:19.127-08:002010-02-02T22:09:19.127-08:00Hey Amy,

I had a Loire Valley Chenin Blanc from '83, and I'm eyeing a Gigondas from '89.<br /><br />Cab Franc with Hoppin' John? That sounds delicious. I personally like pairing Cab Franc with eggs soft-scrambled with goat cheese over toast--if you're ever into drinking wine with (a late) breakfast.<br /><br />Joon S.<br />http://vinicultured.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3847240398628647648.post-13814836359706491592010-02-01T17:36:00.915-08:002010-02-01T17:36:00.915-08:00"taut and lean"...just like you. i am L..."taut and lean"...just like you. i am LOVING your blog. great descriptions and amzing recommendations.County Seat Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14970634102734383582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3847240398628647648.post-53319864578701705562010-01-31T09:32:46.862-08:002010-01-31T09:32:46.862-08:00Kermit Lynch???
