Picked up this bottle of red wine at Whole Foods the other day. Don Simon Tempranillo gets a Good Rating from the Winos! Plus it was only $5.99 for the bottle... tasty wine, with good alcohol content, and both Winos agree to buy again!
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.

Rail Yard in Frisco for Margaritas and Wine! #frisco
More fun in downtown Frisco, TX... this time, checked out the Rail Yard and listened to live music and had a Margarita or two! Also, tried a tasty Malbec from Vinalba Winery. Will be back for more fun times... and again the White Wine Wino will need to sample the Malbec before we can post a rating for it. No worries, always ready for an excuse to return to a spot we liked!
Flight of Craft Beer and Sangria at Eight11 in Frisco
Out and about last night. Stopped at Eight11 in Frisco (TX) and had a flight of craft beer before settling on the Blood IPA. Also, Sangria was strong ans tasty, too! Winos will be back for more!
Fetzer Merlot at Cheddars
Dinner at Cheddars, ordered a Fetzer Merlot for a starter. Then, the Philly Cheese Steak. Both were tasty, will have to try another glass of Fetzer before making a rating decision. The White Wine Wino was unavailable to taste the wine. And, of course, the White Wine Wino refused to take the Red Wine Wino's recommendation until properly tasting the wine!
The Pub in McKinney
Had some homemade chips... loaded of course, and a flight of whiskey. Went trout fishing earlier that day, so the Red Wine Wino was extremely pleased! Caught a fish, had fried food, and a buzz from the whiskey! White Wine Wino was the designated driver... no comment on the day's fun. LOL!
The Mill in Abilene #sangria
Stopped at The Mill in Abilene one evening. Went with the refillable Sangria bottle and a glass of their House Red! Cool atmosphere and great conversation with friends and family!
Frontera Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot, Concha Y Toro,
Had this one before and liked it! Had it again and still liked it! Especially liking the price... $7.99 at the grocery store for the big bottle!
Belle Made for You - Cabernet Sauvignon
Belle Made for You - Cabernet Sauvignon rated a Best Buy by 2016 Wine Enthusiast. Gave it a try and the Winos agree to purchase again... hence, it earns the Winos' Good Rating!
