Cavalli Pizzeria and Wine Bar - House Red (Merlot)

Happy hour last night at a pizzeria we like to frequent.  Pizzas cooked in a wood fired, brick oven and basically flash cooked at high temps.  Pizza is done in 90 seconds!  And, what better way to have pizza then a glass of red wine!

In this case, the Red Wine Wino opted for the Restaurant's House Red in a Merlot.  Very good wine,... the Winos are rating this one "Good"!  Will purchase this one again in the future!

Franzia Fruity Red Sangria

Here is another one from Franzia.  It's their Fruity Red Sangria that comes in a 5 liter cardboard box.  The two Winos gave this one a "Good Rating".

We have no issues with wine that comes in a cardboard box as long as it tastes good.  In this case, it tastes good!  Keeping this one in mind when the funds are running low (but would also buy it if rolling in dough!).

Lindeman's Bin 50 Shiraz

Have not had a Shiraz in a while.  Pulled this one off the wine rack at home.  Been gathering dust, so better late than never... Crafted in Australia and priced right - less than $5!  Both Winos give this one a Good Rating.

Choctaw Casino's Diamond Back Lounge - House Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon

Was out last night to try our luck at the gaming tables at Choctaw Casino.  Was sidetracked by a free concert featuring Lee Rocker , stand-up bass player for the rockabilly band Stray Cats!  While enjoying the live music, ordered a couple of red wines from the bar.  Both wines earned a "Good Rating" with the Cabernet Sauvignon having the slight edge over the Merlot. 

PS:  If you like live music and rockabilly sounds, you will like Lee Rocker and his band.  Outstanding performance in a small group setting!

Barefoot Winery Moscato

White Wine Wino opted for a bottle of Moscato.  This one remains a favorite and gets another "Good Rating"! 

Llano Sweet Red

Revisiting this one again.  Llano Sweet Red maintains it's Good Rating. The Winos agree again on this one.

PF Changs House Red - Cabernet Sauvignon

After trying the Angove Moscato while having dinner at PF Changs, decided to try their House Red.  Had a choice of a Merlot and a Cabernet Sauvignon.  Went with the Cabernet.  Red Wine Wino had no issues with it; White Wine Wino did not care for it.  This one gets a "Neutral Rating" since the Winos can't agree on this one.
