To the reader who requested Fat Bastard Shiraz, we are working on getting it. I looked for it at Total Wine, but were out of it when I went in. I will continue to work on finding it, and we will try it once I do. Just not this week, sorry.
Wine night is more than just trying new things each week for us. It’s about friends getting together to talk about the good times, the bad times, and the memories. It gives us a chance to really gain a better understanding of one another. We each have our own very distinct tastes and opinions on most issues. I believe this is why our little group works so well together, we all bring our own brand of insanity to the table.
Anyway this weeks wines where a nice mix, a little bit of something for everyone. We had a nicely sweet Moscato and a red blend by Apothic to celebrate the Halloween season. We also tried mixing the two and found it to be a nice combo wine. We didn’t rate the combo, maybe that should be a new feature? Each week we also mix the wines we try to see what mixes well. What do you think? Tell us in the comments.

Welcome to Wednesday Wine Night. We have a quality selection for you to read about this time, cause we are taking the wino thing to a new level of awesome. Please hold your applause until we are finished. Sadly Gina was not feeling well and was unable to attend this week, we were sad but persevered. The Wine Night must go on. If you would like to drink along with us we wouldn’t discourage it(Wednesday Wine Night does not condone the underage use of alcohol). Okay now hold on to your glasses boy’s and girl’s this should be fun.
We like to keep a good balance here at Wine Night as we have some people who prefer Reds and some who prefer Whites, and a few who just like to look at the bottom of their glass. We use very nice glasses. We had both Red and White wine this week and we may have mixed them a little. Our Red was called Eye Candy which just happened to also have been my nickname in high school. Our white was a nice little sparkling number called, “Gran Spumante”. It was a decent matchup this week we were a happy group.

So this week we decided to throw caution to the wind and have ourselves a little Ménage à Trois and we all seemed to like it. So I guess we learned a little bit more about ourselves today.
I hope you didn’t mistake my use of the name of one of this week’s wines with anything else called, “Ménage à Trois”. You didn’t good, cause this week we tried out “Ménage à Trois Rose” and “Clos Du Bois” (don’t ask me how to pronounce that I haven’t a clue), both of which were rose’s. You could say we were in a rosy mood, but don’t.

We’ve decided to post the reviews one week after we rate them so these entries will always be on Wednesday’s as would only be proper seeing as this is Wednesday Wine Night. Also with all the drinking it’s best if we don’t release them right away if you want more than a bunch of drunken babel, which might make an excellent video but not a review site. So that’s why we didn’t have a review last week, now on to the main show.
We tried not one, not two, but three wines this week. Aren’t we just moving right along with our classiness? This week’s wines where, “Domaine STE Michelle“ a sparkling white, “Red Jam” a red blend and “Buscado Blanco” a white blend.
