Valle Escondido Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
For the price point, this light wine was enjoyable to share with gals while noshing on Italian cookies and watching the World Series (go Cubs)! — 9 years ago

041°S 174°E Regional Reserve Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
Drinking while hungry. It's more sweet than I'd like on an empty stomach but I'm not sure that I'd want lighter or more acidity. Perhaps more liquid lunches are in order. Note that came with my glass is, "Passion Fruit & Boxwood. Intense passion fruit and mango aromas, backed by classical herbal notes of boxwood, nettle, and capsicum. A lively palate of tropical fruit with crisp lime acidity and lingering passion fruit." Too complex for a liquid lunch, IMO. — 8 years ago

Marsannay Chardonnay 2011
Smooth, buttery, full-bodied wine that goes well with fish and spice. I thoroughly enjoyed my glass over 5 courses. I hope to come across more Chardonnays like this one. — 8 years ago
Anthony Road
Finger Lakes Semi-Dry Riesling
One of the few off-dry Rieslings I was able to find at my local liquor & wine spots as the rest were toted to be dry or sweet. (Delectable guided me to this bottle.) Loved how it complemented the charcuterie board that my friends and I noshed for dinner. Sweet to my normally red-favoring tongue but a nice follow-up to the Prosecco we started with. — 9 years ago

Much better on the empty-stomach palette. The notes on this wine that came with the glass are, "Lemon and Sea Brine. Bright aromas are Meyer lemon zest, Bartlett pear, nectarine, fresh dough and sea brine lead to a crisp, citrusy palate of lemon, white grapefruit, and minerals in this refreshing white from the south of France." I guess I wanted a refreshing glass. — 8 years ago
