Livingston Merlot

How about a big bottle of red wine from Livingston Cellars.  This one comes in strong with a 12% Alcohol Content that won over the Red Wine Wino.  White Wine Wino was good with it, too!  This one gets a Good Rating.  Will purchase again in the future; even better that it cost under $6 locally!

Yellowtail - Sweet Red Roo

Yellowtail Winery from Down Under offers a Sweet Red called a Sweet Red Roo!  Tasty red wine... with a 12% Alcohol Content.  Both Winos give this one a Good Rating.  PS: Don't be a snob about the screw top cap.

Village Burger Margaritas and Martinis

Stopped by Village Burger for Happy Hour.  Ordered a Mangorita, a Chamborita, and a Lemon Drop Martini.  It was all good.... Especially after paying the tab. Add another Margarita, a Martini, and a dessert; final tally was under $20!


Tino's Too Margaritas

Was out for dinner last night.  White Wine Wink was in the hankering for Margaritas.  Decide to try a local eatery for Mexican food and Margaritas.  Ordered one, then two, then... They were good!  Will be back for more we are certain!

Pluckers House White Zinfandel

Was out for Wings and appetizers the other night at Pluckers.  Ordered a glass of White Zinfandel.  Did not see the bottle so we don't know the Winery but both Winos liked it and agree to buy again.  This one gets a "Good Rating".


Gattavecchi Chianti Colli Sensesi 2011

Bought this one from a local wine and spirits store.  Had not had Chianti in a while.  The Red Wine Wino has a weakness for Chianti; it's his favorite red wine.

This Chianti is botttled by Gattavecchi Luca E Gionata S.s in Montepulciano, Italy. It is made from 90% Sangiovese and 10% native red grapes.  Label says it is ideal with red meats and fresh and seasoned cheeses.

To the Red Wine Wino, it tastes good all by itself.  Both Winos agreed to purchase again in the future, earning it a Good Rating.

Red Wine Wino goes one step further and is ranking the Winos' the Number One Chianti!

Frutella Pear Moscato

Here is a Moscato that we have not tried before.  Comes from Frutella and is made from pears!  Tasty wine that is sweet and sparkling (so it is bubbly).  Rated at 7% alcohol content, so teetotalers should not have an issue with a glass or two.

Red Wine Wino had no issues with it other than it needs a little more "umphh" in alcohol content.  White Wine Wino liked it but does prefer Moscatos that don't bubble.

This one gets a Neutral Rating.
