Domaine Laurier Brut

As a reviewer of cheap wines, value wines, budget wines, or whatever you want to call them, I taste a lot of inexpensive wines.  Not all can be great.  Fortunately, thanks to technology, most cheap wine is much better than it was 20 years ago.  Unfortunately, that didn’t help this one.

I tasted this wine in a blind tasting and it wasn’t my favorite.  After the blind tasting I shared it with a few other folks, who seemed to share my opinion on this wine.

The nose smells like freshly cut grass, and not in a way that I like.  That same aroma comes through as the flavor on the palate, where it becomes evident that it is coming from the yeast, which is waaayyyy too heavy on the palate.  There is a little fruit underneath it all, but it’s clear that the yeast is not doing this wine any favors.  In short, I just don’t dig this wine.

Disclosure: This wine was received as a sample.  The FTC insists that I add these disclosures because they think that I’ll give a bad wine a good review just because it was sent to me as a sample.  They are wrong.
