Dinner and Ales at the Yard House in Dallas!

Dinner and Ales at the Yard House in Dallas the other day. Lots of food and tasty apps... opted for Asada Tacos and a Salad, and then Lakeland and Dragon Tails ales to go with them!  Gotta love it!

Eskimo Hut for Frozen Cocktails!

Eskimo Hut for frozen cocktails while in Abilene! Tried the Pina Colada, Margaritas, and Daiquiris! Strong, cold, and tasty... perfect for a rainy night!

Red Velvet Cabernet Sauvignon

Out for dinner at the Olive Garden. Started with appetizers and Red Velvet Cabernet Suavignon! This one get a Good Rating from the Winos!

Ukulele and Wine... Yellowtail Pinot Noir

Always a fan of Yellowtail's offerings from OZ! Their Pinot Noir does not disappoint.  In particular, the Red Wine Wino feels it pairs well with the new Kala Pacific Walnut Tenor Ukulele.  Wine and Song... now just add the Women! LOL!

Brandy, Martini, and Port... Oh My... Berry Nice!

How about some Amber Select Brandy, a Martini, and Messina Hof Port Wine? Red Wine Wino says, "Sure Thing!"

• Amber Select Brandy was tasty and carries the 80 proof alcohol content. But, had Minute Maid Berry Fruit Punch and WOW! Very Tasty!
• Martini was mixed at a restaurant; was tasty but no strength... need the one's from Bar Louie!
• Messina Hof Port Wine remains a sure thing... sweet and strong alcohol content.

A little something, something for the palette... lesson learned Brandy mixed with Minute Maid Berry Punch makes an awesome cocktail. Easy mix too... two fingers of brandy in a "Rock Tumbler" glass and fill the rest with Punch! Calling this one the "Berry Nice"!

Deep Fried Turkey and Grapecreek Vineyard's Pinot Grigio?

Preparing Thanksgiving turkey the way we like it... deep-fried! While doing so, best way to chill while cooking it is with a glass of Grapecreek Vineyard's Pinot Grigio and Charlie the Maltese Puppy looking on - "supervising" of course. Well looks like he prefers to take a nap instead while the Red Wine Wino cooks the turkey.  No worries... the wine was good; will buy again earning its Good Rating from the Winos!

Cabernet Sauvignon from Woodwork in CA!

Cabernet Sauvignon from Woodwork Winery in California was a tasty one. Had this one with a home cooked dinner of Carne Asada! Went well with the spicy meat and grilled vegetables. Winos give Woodwork's Cabernet Sauvignon a Good Rating!
