    The Other White Wine


    2013 - 01.23

    It's a magic potion that makes everything you say interesting. 

    Holy warm in January Batman! It was 80 degree’s in Phoenix today. We had a fire anyway, cause that’s the classy thing to do, plus we really like fire. With the warm weather a white wine seemed more appropriated. Plus the bottle had a sexy lady on it so I had to try it.

    Smoke and Fire


    2013 - 01.16

    Life is always better when I wine. 

    It is finally cold enough to break out our portable fireplace to add a little ambiance. This went well with tonight’s wine a red Merlot. Even though Red’s are supposed to be served at room temperature, something about the cold weather makes them taste better. The temperature may have affected some of our opinions.

    Moscato in Winter


    2013 - 01.09

    Gentleman with wine. 

    In the cold January winter we have broken out the portable fire to stay warm and to add a little ambiance to go with our wine. Tonight we have a rose for you; this is the first rose we have rated for you in a while so I hope we both disappoint.

    Merry Christmas from Wednesday Wine Night


    2012 - 12.19

    Pouring a glass of wine. 

    Twas the week before Christmas and all through the house

    Every bottle was empty, the wine soon would run out.

    The reviewers where all drinking with care,

    In hopes that more wine soon would be there.

     

    Bridget and Dante sipped on their Reds,

    While visions of Merlot’s danced in their heads.

    And Chad in her ‘kerchief, and Thad in his cap,

    Had just finished their wine and though, “oh crap.”

     

    When out of the blue Hollie caused such a clatter,

    Dante jumped to his feet to see what’s the matter.

    Away to the door he flew like a flash,

    Torn open the screen because he was smashed.

     

    The front yard was dressed in a Christmas glow,

    with lights and figures that put on a show.

    When what to his wondering eyes should appear,

    But wonderful Gina, holding wine up to here.

     

    With the little old cork-screw, so lively and quick,

    Thad pulled out a cork and gave it a lick.

    More rapid than rivers, he filled up the cups,

    And he whistled and shouted as he drank the wine up!

     

    Try, Pinot! Try, Syrah! Try Merlot and Malbec!

    Drink, Reisling! Drink, Moscato! Drink Whites and Reds!

    From the top of the glass, to the bottom of the bottle,

    tasted them, taste them, taste them all!

     

    We spoke not word but when right to work,

    trying each one with each of their quarks.

    Rating them all the good and the odd,

    taking each opinion with one little nod.

     

    We smiled and laughed all through the night,

    talking and joking we were such a sight.

    You could hear us exclaimed, as we finished the white,

    “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a happy wine night!”

       

    Only six days until Christmas folks and our last wine night before the holiday. We have three wines for you to read about tonight two reds and one white. These all come to us from Califoria, I guess it’s our attempt to hold to the last of the warm weather. Though it was anything but warm tonight in pheonix. So realize we froze ourselves just for one.
