Stopped by Top Golf last night to hit a few golf balls. No wait, got there later in the evening... very nice! Decided to try their Wine in a Bucket offering choosing a Sweet Red and a Moscato from Stella Rosa Black and Seven Daughters, respectively.
All was good with enough sweetness to keep the White Wine Wino happy. Red Wine Wino was good with them save for the needed "fortification" on the alcohol content . 5.5% for the Sweet Red and 7.5% for the Moscato.
No worries thought, ordered the drink with the flashing souvenir glass shaped like a golf bag!
A web log started by two Wine Enthusiasts, synonym for "Winos". Its intent is to log our thoughts and opinions about inexpensive wines available at local grocery and beverage stores. Our hope is to prevent other "Winos" from making the same mistakes we made with our wine purchases.

Christian Brothers Brandy and Manzanita Sol... #brandy
Chillin in the backyard, decided to mix up some apple soda with brandy. Went with Christian Brothers Brandy and Manzanita Sol in a 1 to 1 mix, add a little ice cube to chill... all was good for the Red Wine Wino!
Winstar Casino and Happy Hour. #winstarcasino
Was playing the slots at Winstar Casino. Mojo was off, so took a break and opted for their Happy Hour offerings - Shiner Bock on tap and Finlandia vodka shots! Felt much better having not done so well at the slots!

Village Burger and Margaritas! #villageburger #margaritas
Village Burger and Margaritas is always a good choice, especially on a warm Summer evening listening to live music in the background... plus they pack a punch, too!
Vendange Chardonnay #wineinabox
Had Vendange Chardonnay before. Cannot recall how long ago but no worries. It went well while chillin' in the backyard watching the grass grow!
Frappe Vino... #winemix #moscato #vodka
Tried something new... Frappe Vino wine mix. Added Barefoot Red Moscato and fortified it with Absolut Vodka. Tasty wine with a kick to make things all good! May need to try Spiced Rum to see how it mixes with the Frappe Vino!
