all your white wine

[capnamerca]

are belong to conundrum 2006 (nod to scottsins). 06 kicks the CRAP out of the 05. Glad I tried it again.

Are you talking about Caymus Conundrum Chardonnay or Conundrum Chardonnay? There are two and it is slightly confusing keeping track.

 

[capnamerca]

Conundrum 2006. It's no longer Caymus (explicitly, that's still the backing vineyard), and it's not a chard, it's a table wine, a blend, and no one knows what the blend is (thus the conundrum!).

I hear white wine goes well with shrimp

 

[bozo_casanova]

It also goes well with a salad and NO SEX AT ALL

 

[UTEE]

I dislike Chards, but if it's a blend I might enjoy it-- where would one find this Conundrum?

 

[TEXumAS]

Conundrum can be found at any HEB.

But, "all your white wine" are belong to Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc....not Conundrum

the next best thing i have found to conundrum is Evolution, which is also very good.

 

[Hayden_Horn]

i love evolution. the wife and i (then the gf and i) "discovered" that wine at gilligan's restaurant @ 4th and colorado. that was such a great restaurant

y'all talked me into it, I'll have to try it.

speaking of wines, recently bought a couple of bottles of a Napa Cab called Inissis or something like that, from Jo Phelps. I think it was the 05, but I'm old and my memory sucks.

anyway, damn fine wine for the price <$25

 

[scottsins]

oh, since reds were brought up, we killed two bottles of charles krug generations at delmonico's on saturday.

as always, they did not disappoint. definitely one of my top 4 bottles under $100.

 

[Jive_Turkey]

Damn. 06's are good to go?

 

[TNLonghorn]

A great red wine to try is Menage a Trois. It's a California red table wine that's relatively cheap and is very good.

 

[capnamerca]

Two EXCELLENT recommendations that we've discovered recently (thanks to a co-worker and an expensed dinner) are from the Franciscan Winery ... their Meritage (whatever year is current, I forgot to look) was fantastic (this was at dinner), and when I got home I bought the cab from HEB ($24). I believe it was an 03, might have been 04. EXCELLENT - very big, but very smooth. Not a lot of pepper, but not bitter at all - just really good.
