Wine-o: Big Claw White

Big Claw 2009 White Wine, CA
Alcohol 13.7%
Price $16-

This wine was a huge disappointment.  During a fun vacation on the Maine Coast, it was assumed that this wine would be fantastic with seafood.  While it did pair adequately, it was very weak in flavor.  The wine is a blend of Grenache Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gewurtztraminer.  The bottle noted it as "the perfect lobster pairing."  I would recommend a large Yellow Tail Chardonnay instead.


"Dry, bland, disappointing"

"Flavorless, indistinct, expensive"

"Bizarre, watery"

Freya's Score: 40
Mona's Value: 2.5

The MV is calculated by dividing the FS by the price, giving a better analytic that takes into consideration price as well as overall taste
