Summer Sippers – wines that taste great in a plastic cup! I don’t know, but at these prices I am sure I will find out. What better way to celebrate the 4th of July or just a casual barbeque with friends than a nice easy drinking wine in a dixie cup. I hope everyone has a great fourth of July.

the perfect red wine for July 4th

June 27th, 2009 · Uncategorized

718 Barbeque wine trioToday I have been invited to a bar-b-que by my neighbors and have decided to try out a wine for my July fourth celebration. I thought it would be a good opportunity to try this wine before serving it on Independence day. the 718 Barbeque pack from Brooklyn Oenology features a red they call the Social Red Club with plush fruit flavors with a pinch of pepper, baking herbs, and smoke. I think this will go great with ribs, chicken, or burgers. After a sip pre-party today, this wine is fruity with the right amount of smoke and pepper punch. I’m sure this red will be the hit of your red, white, and blue celebration.

Michael Jackson Dies… Let’s make a toast

June 25th, 2009 · Merlot

Michael Jackson and Bubbles the monkey I’m sure you have now heard that Michael Jackson has supposedly died from a heart attack today, so what better way to mourn his death than with a nice glass of Monkey Bay Merlot and listening to some of his greatest hits. I have chosen this bottle of Monkey Bay Merlot to honor Mr. Jackson’s love for his pet monkey Bubble’s. So let us raise a glass and remember all the great music Michael gave to this world from the Jackson Five to his solo career. I know I will never forget the Thriller album as it hit while I was at summer camp. I’m not sure how good the wine will be as I am just opening it now, but will perhaps make a separate post after I have digested this news and the wine of course.
