Grand Pacific Chardonnay
You get strong lemon on the nose with subtle apple coming second. In the mouthfeel lemon dominates front, apple middle and a pretty crisp finish. It is really owned by the citrus though moreso than the butter.
Taste 2. The mouthfeel is still largely dominanted by the citrus, but the apple comes through a little more with butter appearing on back.
Taste 3. Butter emerges stronger in later tastings.

Decoy by Duckhorn Cabernet
I'm a few drinks into this while writing this, so forgive me if I'm not perfect on my tasting note here. But, I get by in large a drier style medium bodied cab with plum on the front of the palate and cherry on the back. It's relatively smooth with more of a stick to your teeth style tanin. You get a bit of an herbiness, although I am not sure I qualify it as an olive flavor like the Total Wine and More website suggests.

Moet and Chandon Imperial
Nose is not too strong, slight breadyness, citrus drying feel with a little apple. Smooth and easy finish.

Offley Ruby Port.
Full of rich velvety dark fruit throughout. Drink like a liqour. Can smell strong alcohol.
Rombauer Chardonnay
Light oak and apple in nose, can detect the pear in mouthfeel with the citrus at back and a long finish. Nose feels light at the moment but flavor is good and it is ultimately a drier chardonnay.
Definite acidity that defines this with peach coming out in nose second round as warmer.

Crow Canyon
Actually a really nice cheap medium bodied cabernet. Fruitier than dry with strong cherry and acidity. Fairly long lasting.

Hot to Trot Red Blend
Nose is kind of bland like. Cherries predominant in mouthfeel. Mocha on back end. Its ok really, but not super great. On the sweeter side.

Truth and Valor Zinfandel
Red fruits in the nose, luscious cherry that costs the tongue with plum backend. Not heavy but very strong backend bite with a bit of dry tannin feel. By in large, its an oaky berry nose on average, plum and cherry do intercede throughout and strong dry finish.
