Wine Wednesday

I love sharing my wines with all of you and I really hope that you like my sharing. Please feel free to join me and we can do a joint wine review or if there is a wine you want me to review please feel free to email me and I will do it.

This week I picked 3 Blind Moose because I thought it was a really cute name and a cute bottle and well also it was in one of our wine magazines as a must try.

I grabbed a 2007 Cabernet and also a 2008 Pinot Grigio from Target for about $10 each.



"Truth be told, the moose aren't blind, like us, they see clearly that making and enjoying great wine should be fun. We think you will fall head over hooves for our California Cabernet, whose rich cherry, cassis and subtle oak flavors mate beautifully with everything from barbecued tofu burgers to grilled steaks (but hold the chocolate mousse!) So, assemble your favorite wine hers, pull up a barrel and uncork a bottle of 3 Blind Moose. No shades required."



This Pinot Grigio has a bright citrus, pear and melon flavor that match beautifully with almost everything.

As I have said many times here that I love a fruity wine and this Pinot Grigio is it! It was really, really good and I am going to be getting more to serve over the holiday's. D'man liked the Cabernet as well but I did not try it however he said it was a light tasting wine that was not all that dry.


While at Target I picked up some really cute wine bags to have on hand for the holidays that way if we are invited over to someones house I grab a bottle of wine and put in a wine bag and have an instant gift. We love to give out bottles of the chocolate wine I featured here.

I'm not one for wine...I'm more of a hard liquor person, myself. However, I am able to appreciate a cute bottle with witty label. That said, I suggest you do a review of "Bitch" (seen here: http://www.klwines.com/detail.asp?sku=1032660). I have never tried it - and even if I didn't, I wouldn't know what I'm tasting for...but I've heard some FABULOUS reviews. You won't be able to find it at Target, but it isn't hard to find...and it is cheap!

I love cute wine labels. I bought something called "Mommy's Time Out" because of the label. ;)

I wish our Target had wine, but in Minnesota they don't let grocery stores sell wine.

Isn't that stupid?

Let's review a '92 Gevrey-Chambertin together. Are you buying?

I'm with you on loving Pinot Grigios. I love them crisp and cold. They are my go-to wine.

You and I should chat. Maybe I should send you a couple of Oregon wines to try for your Wine Wednesday. :)

That wine sounds great and I'm not even a wine person (or should I say, a vino)! Great pics, BTW!
