So....lately I have been in pursue of an epic, full bodied, long-legged, crimson colored, lick-your-lips wine. The seasons have just turned, which means I am in full throttle red wine mode. In the summer as I am drinking a stemless glass (or even a pint!) of chilled Savignon Blanc in a dive bar, or a Chardonnay perfectly chilled to 60 degrees while sitting on a patio in the summer. During these times I literally think there is no other way to drinking wine. The thought of drinking red wine almost disturbs me on these hot summer days. I have officially done the switch now. Now, as I drink a Tuscan blend of Cabernet Savignon and Sangievese, I wonder how I could drink something so cold and sweet.
What this whole entry comes down to is....
TRY THIS WINE:
2006 DeLille Cellars "D2" Columbia Valley Red Blend
I don't know too much about it, where it came from, or whatever. (To be honest, I don't know too much shit about wine, I just know what I like, why, and am always eager to learn more about it then). This bottle is about $40 bucks, and from what I tried worth every penny. They don't sell it on this site, but it has a nice explanation. In fact, I don't know where they sell it, but I must get some just for that first sip!
Enjoy.
