  • What's In Your Glass Tonight?

    A fine wine from Sardinia, moderately priced with hint of red berries and tannin and very pleasant aftertaste!

    My brother-in-law bought this for me. Don't know about the quality as I'm not a wine expert, but it tasted just fine!

    Now that was funny Myles! Hopefully it's from a first pressing so it will be virgin.

      A nice oaky, Spanish wine on a zero digit temperature night sure warms up the body! From Ribera del Duero, Cosecha region.

        How does that compare to an early vintage Boone's Farm wine?

          I really wanted the Boones Farm but they didn't have a cold bottle in the frig.

                  I've read good things about this wine. Trying to find a bottle locally.

                Good wines from all over. Great stuff from the Pacific NW too where Ki, MikeL, BruceB and a few other members live!

                  I'm not much of a wine drinker, but I do like Ruffino Chianti. It was on-sale this week for a great price, so I bought a few bottles!

                    Agreed. I've been buying more and more wines from S. America. Pretty good wines at very reasonable prices: malbecs, cabs, carmeneres, etc.
