Been enjoying Wolf Blass this week. I picked up these two. Delicious.

Picked up some more mid-shelf this week. Selaks, Wolf Blass and Nikau Point from the Hawkes Bay of New Zealand. I also upgraded my set of wine glasses. Fuck I'm sophisticated.

Your post history makes my brain bleed.

Nothing but red for me. I know very little about wine as compared to beer, but I know I like malbecs.
For the summer, you may like some Rosé. Besides sounding not very manly, and being associated with Grandma's white zinfandel, Rosé wines can be really good, and a great alternative to whites in the summer.
One of my favorite blends that Virginia wineries use a lot is 80% Viognier (white), and 20% Cabernet Frac (red).

a good friend of mine has been storing his wine at our place since he moved back to Vancouver BC last year. For dinner last night I grabbed a bottle of his '05 Chateau Haut Brion. It was fantastic and I'm thinking He'll be pissed since its worth about $400...ha

Great response.
I hate not being able to get Virginia wines in Connecticut but it is always another reason to travel back; Viognier is a great varietal in VA.

Earlier, I finished a box of Bota Box Chardonnay that was in our fridge. I don't quite have the palate to properly judge wines, but it had some thing on the side about winning an award.

so I gotta say. I've never been a fan of trader joes with the exception of a few things..anyway, I went this last weekend and saw this Italian sangiovese on the shelf for 3.99 a bottle..I thought I'd buy a couple to mainly use in a pasta sauce..very surprised how drinkable it really is..I think I'll go back and get a case
