Did my shopping for new year’s eve today. J.P. Chenet is the only wine I can ever remember having tasted before, probably due to the odd design of the bottle. Its cheap, but I think it tastes good (I am by no means a regular drinker of wine, a beer on the other hand…). Today I decided to buy a really expensive wine (well compared to J.P.Chenet at least) as well to see if there’s any difference. I bought Amarone Tommasi which is about five times the price of J.P.Chenet. I suppose this test is really pretty flawed since I’m guessing you should match wines to what you will be eating etc. etc., but it might be a fun experiment none the less.
I ended up doing the same with champagne, buying the somewhat more expensive Pol Roger as well as the cheaper Rene Barbier (sparkling wine if one wants to be picky).
Attempting to satisfy my curiosity seems like a good way to end the old year and start the new.
