Wines of the Week

Its a fully enclosed wine storage unit from Vinotemp...racks are two bottles deep...there are about 1200 single bottles, and a smattering of magnums (2 bottle capacity), double mags (4 bottle) and a couple Jeroboams (6 bottle)...

I guess that makes me a wino...

Guess I have wine envy. Lol. Not too bad a guess with the 1000 capacity. [emoji6] I've seen those storage units. Pretty cool.

A classic pairing for lamb for Mother's Day dinner...Châteauneuf-du-Pape...a southern Rhone Valley wine
 
I seriously dig this 2013 Treana Red. It is darn near a perfect bottle. This is the 3rd or 4th bottle I've uncorked at the Casa. Not to mention a few shared and opened with friends. Cheers!! [emoji485][emoji485][emoji485]

Is that the one you sent us? If so that is delicious!


I'm slumming with some Trader Joe's swill.

Actually it's pretty decent for the price.

Having this tonight with dinner...I have a picture of my wife, our two daughters & myself standing with the woman (Madame Francoise Beaumont) who owns the vineyard this wine comes from in Burgundy, FR...drinking her wine with her...she has since retired. There are only 34 Grand Cru wines in all of Burgundy...and she was one of them.

Yup. Don't think I have the disposable funds to up my game to that level. Maybe I'll go to the bottom and start posting some Boones Farm. Lol.

The very best wine in the world is the one you are enjoying drinking at the moment...regardless of label. Some of the very best bottles of wine I've had were local table wine at hole in the wall bistro's with fantastic simple food...maybe only great bread and some cheese...
 
National Wine Day. Something to sip on before/while I prepare dinner. Nice Grenache Blanc. [emoji106]

Man, looking through this thread...I gotta up my wine game. I feel like the village idiot when I go to the state store here in Pa (long retarded story about limited distribution and $$) and try to pick out a wine. My wife hates it so I end up having to drink the whole bottle by myself too.
Hmmm, wait...I said that like its a bad thing didn't I? ;)

Any wine you like is a good wine. [emoji106] Honestly though, there are some pretty good wines now in then $10 range. Just gotta figure out what you like.

Wine folks are smart. There is "drink wine day," wine day, cab day, zin fest, etc etc.

Drink wine day was in Feb/March. [emoji485][emoji485]

I have a rule that I only drink on days that end in "y" and I never waiver.
