Daily's Frozen Lemonade

Decided to try Daily's Frozen Lemonade.  We had tried the Strawberry Daquiri and the Mojito and liked them.  Same goes with the Frozen Lemonade.  Rating: "Good" but for the heavy weight Winos, suggest adding a shot of Gin or Vodka to fortify it!

Cavalli Pizzeria and Wine Bar - Costello Bonfino

Had dinner at a local pizzeria and wine bar.  Offers wood fired, brick oven pizzas using ingredients imported from Italy!  It's authentic Italian pizza.  Ordered a glass (actually two) of their red wine - Costello Bonfino.  This one earns a good rating!

Nigori Sake Snow Beauty

White Wine Wino decided to have some Sake.  Went with an offering from Nigori called the Snow Beauty.  Red Wine Wino deferred rating it to the White Wine Wino.  Bottom-line: It gets a "Good Rating"!

Ravens Wood - Vintners Blend Shiraz

Here is a Shiraz made in California by the Ravens Wood Winery.  Bottled in 2008, this offering made for a pleasant surprise for the Red Wine Wino.  Liked the wine, liked the 13.5% alcohol content, liked the White Wine Wino's agreement to buy this one again!  Rating:  "Good"!

Riunite D'Oro Moscato Trebbiano Puglia

Here is one that we liked... an Italian imported wine offered by Riunite!  It is 51% Moscato and 49% Trebbiano.  Don't let the screw top cap bias your taste buds.  This one gets a "Good" rating.  Sweet with a little bubbly mixed in.  Even better, cost less than $8.00!

House Wines from the Back Porch (Port Aransas, Texas)

While on the Texas Gulf Coast, stopped at a local bar named the Back Porch.  Live music and the "island" atmosphere pulled us in.  After a couple of Margaritas, the two Winos ordered a Cabernet Sauvignon, a Malbec, a Pinot Grigio, and a Zinfandel.  Not sure about the brands.... calling them House Wines for reference.  Both Winos were not disappointed; all earned "Good" ratings!

Beringer Sweet Moscato Holds Its Own.

White Wino purchased Beringer's Sweet Moscato.  Both agreed that it is holding its own with other Moscatos.  Both would buy it again in the future.  Rated "Good"!
