Is there a registered list of all genuine bordeaux wines?
Is there an authentic way that I can check the name of a bottle of Bordeaux? I tried searching the name on the internet and got nothing. The name of the wine is Lafei Fazenda a 2000 Bordeaux Red wine
try www.wineaccess.com – I like them a lot. They have over 50,000 wines on that site.

So I normally like merlot, pinot noir and Souvignon I was just reading about Chianti/Sangiovese style wines how do they match up to what I already like?
I can drink almost any kind but it took pinto noir to get me into wine in the first place.. then i just kinda started liking it all … No cant say that i have had port whats it like?
Thanks Moxie! im gunna go by the wine store and see if they dont have a sample of some of those blends…
The taste will probably be closest to a California rich earthy Cabernet Sauvignon. In fact, Cab is often used to blend with the Sangiovese grape to soften it and give more balance.
If you can find it, Tenute Marchese is pretty easy to drink. Monte Antico is under $15 and this last vintage is pretty easy drinking as well. Also look for blends that are labeled as such. It’s a great way to taste a softer version of the Sangiovese.
hello, i am new to wine and i love chianti classico is there anything out there that is close to this in tasting? Is merlot close to the tast of this wine?
i am just trying to find a good tasting cheap wine for tonight! =)
There are two Super Tuscans. Both from the Chianti region, that are absolutely fantastic and very inexpensive,
1. Carpineto’s “Dogajolo” at approx $10 – $12
2. Monte Antico Toscana Rossa also $10 – $12
Both are classified as Super Tuscan wines and both will compare to many $50 Chiantis.

We don’t drink red wine but a friend came over yesterday with a bottle and had half a glass, then she left the rest with us. Rather than throw it out I made Beef Stroganoff for dinner and added some red wine and I will make spaghetti bolognaise tonight. But I will still have half a bottle. Any one have any fantastic ideas???
