I was hoping for a little more from this wine since it was a blend of two of my favorite white varietals, Chenin Blanc and Viognier. The wine was rich and full, but the flavors were lacking for me. I picked up on some peach and pear, but that's about it. It was OK, but I'd probably pass on it in the future.
The focus of this blog is to keep track of the wines we drink, which ones we like, which ones we don't, and which ones we would like to try. Occasionally, it will contain posts about my family, my life and interests, primarily music and sports.

Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon

Country/State: California
Region: Central Coast
Price: $8.50

This was a really good wine and a great bargain (less than $10). It's really balanced with dark cherries and other dark berries in the nose and mouth, as well as some chocolate in the finish.

We enjoyed this white Burgundy last week...The nose was a bit limited, but the flavors were great. Mostly pears, apples, some citrus, and lemons. It had great acidity and was quite juicy.
