Misc. wines for wednesday

Nopa Vinho Verde NV mineral, slight effervescence pleasant acidity but still had a slightly dull finish... not bad for the money

Los Alisos Chardonnay Santa Barbara 2007... pretty golden yellow, but very flabby on the palate... some sweet tropical fruit but generally boring.

Murphy Goode Pinot Noir California 2008 rusty garnet color, dried fruits on the nose, lush on the palate but not a lot of there there... not much fruit or interest

Batussi Portugal red.. old world nose, dirty and earth.. some bing cherry on the palate but overall a quick light red wine.. not too interesting

Dardo Duoro red 2007 after you get past the stinky nose you get to some good fruit, could use some more body, quick finish but not bad for the money
