I started blogging about wine almost 8 years ago! Every Saturday, pretty well 52 weeks a year, I write a wine blog. I’ve always been very adventurous when it comes to trying new wine, however week after week and year after year, sometimes I hit a wall. A writer’s block wall. This wine blog was initially named “Who Knows”, (LOL) and then I realized most people won’t read a wine blog called Who Knows! And although I’m kind of stumped as to the theme of this weeks wine blog, I do have some new wines to share with you!
If you love Pinot Noir as much as I do, but feel there should be a hefty price tag attached to it, this wine is the answer to your prayers. A light bodied, easy to drink Pinot thats big on flavour. Nice flavours of cranberry and spice, this food friendly wine is priced under $13 a bottle. Great wine at a great value.
And now for my wine of the week……
I took a purple cowboy to a party last weekend. I love the story behind this wi e, because the creator of this wine is a lady called Terry Wheatley. And this lady knows a thing or two about Cowboys, both her husband and son are champion rodeo cowboys. Terry is also a breast cancer survivor, and started the ‘Tough enough to wear Pink’ campaign. The wine is named after the band of purple cowboys, a legendary group of winemaking cowboys. The wine is from Paso Robles California, and the Tenacious Red is a blend of Syrah, Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon. In a word, Delicious!
I’m hoping I’m a little more inspired next weekend. Till next week, Cheers
