Crappy Wine

Catoctin Creek

Petit Verdot 2011

Spicy black fruit nose, light in body and in flavor for a PV, but that is just a result of the crappy 2011 vintage. Sweet fruit attack, tacid is in balance, fine tannins. — 12 years ago

Gnarly Head

Old Vine Zin Lodi Zinfandel 2012

My favorite. I needed it tonight. Have drank too much crappy wine lately. — 12 years ago

Château Poujeaux

Moulis en Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 1997

Still holding up great. This is one of the best wines in this crappy vintage and a genuine overachiever! Smoke, coffee, pinch of poop in the nose. A sip reveals vanilla, fading black fruit, clay and comfortable acidity. Very good stuff! — 12 years ago

Leoville LasCases and Canon la Gaffeliere are also winners in 97. Poujeaux 97 is a very nice Poujeaux

Decoy

Sonoma County Pinot Noir 2011

Light color and weird taste — doesn't feel like Pinot and is very flat or mellow. Will give it 20 minutes to breathe to see how it goes. I think I won't be trying any more Decoy wines. 2 crappy knes was just enough. — 13 years ago

Château Cheval Brun

Saint Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2004

In a town where everything is overpriced (Zermatt, Switzerland) this is remarkable value. Paid about 30Franc at the bottle shop. That sort of money would get you a half bottle of crappy Pinot in a restaurant. It's aged well, but feels like it's still getting there. — 12 years ago

Gabriele Rausse

Virginia Pinot Noir 2010

Made a somewhat crappy evening rather tolerable. — 13 years ago

Woodstone Creek

Raspberry Honey White

Crappy service. In cincinnati. Good wine though. — 13 years ago
