Comparative Mixed 6-bottle case Does good wine have to be expensive?

The Adnams Selection White Burgundy £8.99 vs Domaine de la Bongran, Macon-Villages, Burgundy £16.99 Both are made from Chardonnay and are from Macon. The Bongran is made from grapes that are left on the vine for longer than normal, and takes many months to complete fermentation in the cellar. They are very different in style. Quinta do Crasto Tinto 2008 £8.50 vs Quinta do Crasto Reserva 2007 £17.99 The Tinto has all the intensity of a Port – rich, spicy, black fruit flavours, hints of muscovado sugar – without the weight and substantial alcohol. The Reserva uses fruit from 70-year-old vines and is aged in French and American oak barrels. You’ll find it’s more muscular, weighty and intense. Forrest Estate Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough £9.50 vs Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough £18.99 Both are classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blancs. Cloudy Bay is the famous brand which effectively launched New Zealand into the limelight for its outstanding Sauvignon Blanc.
