I swear it was a total coincidence that I pulled this from the cellar today (look closely at the label). On the day the earth, moon, and sun are aligned this 3 Walla Walla vineyards Syrah is really hitting the spot. Dark fruit, violets, and game. Really good. — 10 years ago
2005 vintage - weird coincidence tasting same wine but different vintage blind in a week - quality drop! — 11 years ago
High shoulder fill, extra long cork completely soaked. By some happy coincidence this is the 4th time we have had this in the last 5-6 years. 3 times (including this) very very good and once just good. At this point the secondary leather and cedar aromas and flavors dominate the remaining fruit. Still a fun drink and a good match for roast chicken. Another Winebid bargain! — 11 years ago

I chose this Patagonian red while walking home, only to realize that I was up to episode 3 of Chef's Table with Patagonian based chef, Francis Mallman. A beautiful coincidence and a delicious drop indeed. Smokey, cherry and blueberry flavors with a touch of lavender on the end.
Fun facts:
The Saurus wines take their name from a very unusual, but important discovery. When the Familia Schroeder winery was being constructed on the vast plains of Patagonia, the fossilized remains of a Titanosaur were unearthed. This dinosaur roamed the area millions of years ago and was one of the biggest species ever known. In honor of this amazing discovery, the family built a special cellar in which to display the bones to the winery's visitors. They were also inspired to create the Saurus line of wines. — 10 years ago
It's not a coincidence that each year it seems like the most interesting wine I taste is from Beaujolais. This fruit forward sparkling sipper is perfect for summer heat and salty foods. #beaujolais #gamay #jeanpaulbrun #realwine — 10 years ago
This is my favorite wine at the moment. saw a picture of the queen from game of thrones with a bottle of it and then ran across it in a shop that day. Great coincidence! Do yourself a favor and pick up a bottle. — 11 years ago
Pale Gold Colour. Predominately creamy nut, honey, hints of green apple and citrus aroma. Slightly off-dry on the palate with flavours of honey, candied citrus, green tea. Balanced medium acidity and medium bodied delight with citrusy long finish. Drink now. By sheer coincidence, I had the pleasure of meeting the winemaker, Nikki, as he told me about the story behind this unlikely blend. He signed the bottle for me — 11 years ago
Just a coincidence, but opening an orange wine at kickoff did not help the Broncos at all. Nice wine with apps, 10.57% ABV a bonus. — 12 years ago
