You know that one friend who says all they’re looking for is an easy drinking red to unwind with at the end of the day? Hey that “friend” could even be you.
REVIEW: Brancaia Tre Rosso Toscana 2013
Super Tuscans are a hot commodity. Made by winemakers who didn’t want to follow the rules, these wine blends made outside the law of the Chianti DOC have grown cult followings, and that means, for the most part, they’ve become incredibly expensive.

Review: Quivira Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel 2012
California Zinfandel used to be the king of California wine, but over the years, most California Zins have become heavy, rich, alcoholic fruit bombs.

Chardonnay and the fall go wonderfully together. The wine pairs beautifully with fall flavors, such as roast chicken, turkey, roasted squash and the like. This week we sampled a bottle of Paul Hobbs Crossbarn Chardonnay from Sonoma County.
Review: Leth Felser Weinberge Riesling 2014
Riesling is a wine with many detractors, but often these detractions are unfounded, based more on perceived qualities than actual experience. The main criticism: Riesling is too sweet. Blame the 1970s, mass production, and Blue Nun, an incredibly popular wine that was syrupy sweet. And due to that popularity, for a long time the American […]
Review: Colonia Las Liebres Bonarda 2013
Bonarda is a grape unfamiliar to most, but if you’re a fan of Malbec, Bonarda should be on your radar and this bottle of Colonia Las Liebres Bonarda 2013 is one of the best values that you will find for a wine priced right at ten dollars. The price is so good for the quality that we […]
