If at first you don’t succeed, try , try, again. When this comes to tasting wine you can never really lose out.
As many of you know, Sara and I are expecting little bundle of joy very shortly. Due to this, the house has been turned over a few times getting ready and things happen to go by the wayside. Sadly, Sunday Salud and the review I did a few weeks ago have suffered the consequences of such actions. So this evening I decided to try again. Such a rough life is mine…

I really enjoyed this wine. I have had the pinot noir and the cab from these guys and enjoyed them as well. A nice buttery Chard that works great with pasta, smoked and grilled meats as well as a 95 degree summer day in the south. Definitely recommend as a drinker, or a great gift for a dinner party. After reviewing this wine and I quite glad that I lost the original review of a different wine. Oh well. Wish us luck as we begin a new chapter in our lives.
Glad you are still able to keep this up for now….sounds like a good wine!
I’ll try my hardest to keep it up in full force once the little one is born…mama needs some vino!
