2005 Castello di Monsanto Chianti Classico
Not the most complex wine out there, but very enjoyable drinking. Lost of fruit, some dusty/astringent notes and gentle tannins. Probably in the range of a Dale Williams B grade wine. :D

And here I was looking for a note on a Dow's Port. :(

p.s. And just for the record, Monsanto is actually a biotech company now (well, actually for the last decade). Still, you made me look, didn't you?

Lost of fruit,


that's sad, did you find it? (you caught me with my "wive" slip) :)

Monsanto is usually in that range for me, dependable but not complex.
