Happy new year! Today we check out the most popular reviews for 2010 here at Wineguider wine reviews. Getting right to it, these 3 reviews had the most views in 2010, by a sizeable margin:
Despite the raging, unprecedented popularity of the California chardonnay series, we have two pinot noirs and a sauvignon blanc — nice. I like how pinot noir is sort of the new cab/merlot. And though sauvignon blanc isn’t yet the new chardonnay, I can hope.
It’s surprising that the no. 1 review for the year was a dis. I admit that when I first tried Hob Nob in a nice bar, I thought it was a real winner. I even gave it a second chance review, when I found it selling for significantly less, but still could not muster a recommendation.
Which makes sense when you have the unbelievable Mark West pinot noir for only $9. And don’t get me started on the Mark West Santa Lucia Highlands, which is just freaking unbelievable for around $15, or even less.
Of course, I wish the top 3 included some of my personal favorites (Pomelo, Bollini, Rosemount, Toasted Head, Chilensis price drop alert, Domaine Serene, Lange, Zen of Zin, The Birdman, and the guest-review of Chateau Montet by That Girl), but you can’t have everything, can you?
As always, if you want me to review a wine, you can e-mail me at wineguider@gmail.com
Cheers and here’s looking forward to 2011!
