About the FNCC

Some wines need no introduction. We are not Some Wines. We are Andrew and Simon and this is the classic boy meets wine story. Forged from the smoldering fires erupting from the boredom of middle aged Friday nights, and an infantile ignorance of a simple wine known only as "Chianti".

To adhere to the scientific method,
all Chianti's will be decanted, served at room temp and ingested orally, while reviewing the scientific method, for scientific methodology.

Contadino 2007
$5.99 @ Bevmo
January 15, 2010

Environment and Extraneous Variables:
Andrew's house, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 in the PS3, Last few slices of round table pizza

Initial Impressions:
"This wine made me burp" - AP
"That is some sharp tangy shit" - SP

Descriptive terms:
Acidic, burned jelly babies, like licking a basketball, Alien acid blood, wirey and like sandpaper

Character Comparisons:
Randy "macho man" Savage, Pip (from Great Expectations)

Overall Ratings and Conclusions:
Initially rated at a flat 1.0 turns of a corkscrew, but with a little time and air it reached the peak of 1.75 turns...
I might use it to flavor my favorite "red sauce". It's the type of vinegar that gives a headache. It is important to note that this Chianti aged well in the full 60 minutes of consumption. This puppy needs to breath. As a matter of fact you might consider "mouth to mouth" to afford it the opportunity to do something just less then impress.
