As some of you know I've been meaning to start this blog for a long time. For whatever reasons, I've always been approached by people in stores like Trader Joe and BevMo for advice on wines. I must look like I know my wines or perhaps I am just approachable. Anyway, I am always happy to help. Anyway, my last discovery was at BevMo, I found his incredible California Cabernet that normally retails for $16 but that you can get for $8 because of the special they are running buy one bottle, get the second for $.05...
-2006 Shiloh Road Cabernet Sauvignon
While I was there I also picked up a Shiraz that I am also very fond of that I first found at Eli's in Carmel Valley. It retailed at $4.99. This Shiraz is far superior then much higher prices Shiraz rated 90 and 91 by Wilfred Wong
- 2005 Delicato Shiraz
I also highly recommend a blend of Merlot, Zinfandel, and cab from the folit a deux winery. I've tried both the 2005 and 2006 and liked both, although I slightly favor the 2005. They retail for around $8
- 2005 Menage a Trois California red table wine
I will also recommend a couple of white wines from the Barefoot winery. Although, they are very enjoyable to drink, unlike my above three recommendations, they are not exceptional. They retail for around $4.99 at Trader Joe.
- Barefoot Chardonnay
- Barefoot Sauvignon blanc
Enjoy!
