For Pinot noir I would recommend Robert Mondavi. You will like it.

yup...but it is a big winery & costly as well. Havent tried American wines for a while...too costly
mostly concentrate on NZ pinot noirs.

 

[red amoeba]

TotaLLy Agree with You ..
Pardon Me, I am stiLL buying them from Giant; up to this point of time..:o

for me...i always believe price n quality of wine is not 100% correlated. i have tasted reaonably priced wines and find them to be good.
of course i havent tried Lafite and couldn't say its good or not...

its reallt personal...and shld remain that way...like this you can enjoy...wines are to be enjoyed ...dont need to care if other ppl like the label you are drinking.

for ex i have tried Yellow Tail and i liked them...but their price has gone up a few notches over these years.

then again, there are labels that i won't touch...eg: Jacobs Creek...LOL

Frankly for white I used to go for Californian winery but these days I tend to go for Australian.

Totally agreed with your points. Many years back my boss treat me a bottle of Italian wine that cost 300 plus dollars taste like crap, and I brought along a bottle of wolfblass Cabernet Sauvignon back then only cost 20 dollars. Taste so much better then that bottle of Italian wine.

Depends but these days I tend go for Moscato....

I do like white from Australia, it has much more fruity taste. For red, I prefer France wine that have little more Oak and nice to go along with cheese and crackers

Yeah true about Australian wine but for French wine unless you really knows the winery well enough otherwise I find it risky because some of the wineries are so unfamiliar.

Do you think I can find them in airport duty free? I have a few trips to do over the next 2 months.

If you come across a Western Australia winery name Lamont, PLEASE buy their wine. Their RED are very very nice! And the Riesling too.

Friend not all French wine are that expensive, go look for Cote du Rhone wine very drinkable and affordable. And for New Wine World by far Australian and New Zealand are pretty good in our region, just that when all these wines comes into Singapore they are over priced.
