I
don’t really care too much for ice wine as I find them too
sweet.
For the last few years I have
continue to be attracted by Chilean wineries. I find the price and
quality is quite a catch. I think it is value for money if you
can get it cheap.
My
top recommendation would be Montes. I thinks the price and taste is
remarkable. You can play with wine glass to bring up the aroma. The price in the US is selling between
US$8.50 to US$13.00 I am sure if you get it from Santiago is half
that price. I think is great drinking alone. Its equally good with
food. In 2006 I could not find it
in SG but maybe you can get it now.
2nd Recommendation would
be Concha Y Toro Marques I think this is a great bottle it cost
about US$13.00 a bottle. Certainly with Red
meat Lamb or Beef.
3rd would be wine from
Conchagua valley such as Melbec. Great with food. US$3.99 a bottle.
4th is Santa Helena
Reserve from Colchagua Valley. This bottle is not circulated
in the US. ( I saw this bottle sold in SG restaurant
for SGD80 dollars. It cost US$6.00 in South and
central America). I love it. Its a shy bottle. Require a little
piatent and sensitive taste to explore the taste.
15th minutes from
my apt are a couple of private wineries that they do not
do mass circulation, they are great but i don't share
the same passion as i do for Chilean wines.
