Petit Verdot 2007, Who Dat?

This 2007 from Paso Robles is a sure winner (I didn't blog it until I was sure to have enough in my own clutches ;-). A reasonable price at less than $10. Drinking it tonight w/ a thai chicken, but imagine it would go well with any hearty meat dish...Or just like I'm drinking it now, all by its lonesome!
Ruffino IL Ducale 2006... A Great Bargain, But at What Cost?

A great bargain at 9.99... Cheapest price I could find is 15.99 on the web + shipping. SO I wondered, what's with the smokin' deal? This blend is 60% Sangiovese 20% Merlot and 20% Syrah... With this 3some in the house I was looking for a little bit of fruit (yeah, I know...it's Italian, so dryness is the word of the day). Nonetheless, I had hoped maybe it wasn't too-good-to-be-true. You might be able to tell by "the look" it didn't rock my word. Still, it doesn't stand alone as a sipper, didn't go well with my tacos (a little spice just crushed it)... but I imagine it will hold its own with a nice soft pasta sauce. I'd say take a chance and let your pallete decide. I think a lot of peeps will bite on the bait at this price, so if you're in... get in fast!

Trentatre Rosso 2007
Sharing some thoughts and notes about Trader Joe's Wines
People ask me all the time... "So what wine for this, or what wine for that..." I find more often than not directing them to trader Joe's as most people are familiar with it and things are easy to find. With that said, Here we are with a blog about wine.
