As those of you who follow us on Facebook are already aware. We are now saving our corks for Dante. He has volunteered to do something crafty with them. I will update you as he makes progress.
In the post Turkey day blissfulness we were down two members both Chad and Gina. Sadly could not make it tonight though we do expect them back next week. Though tonight we will let you once again enjoy our naughty little threesome.
Though there where only three regulars in attendance, we did have a few guests to help us make sure none of the wonderful wines were wasted. Tonight we will be presenting you with 3 red wines and 1 white wine. I have noticed that our red wines have been out numbering our whites by quite a few lately. Do not worry my fans of whites we will be balancing it out soon.

Happy Thanksgiving to you, my lovely little winos, I mean connoisseurs of wines of all verities both in taste and quantity!
Welcome again to our quest to discover the best wine for the best price you can. Tonight was very special because tomorrow is thanksgiving, though Gina sadly was not able to make it we did have plenty of guests and tried a plethora of wines mostly Reds (this was not a shrewd attempt at tongue and cheek racism). With all our guests and the happy go lucky triviality I made a mistake, sorry it happens on the few of the wines I missed Bridget’s opinion. She was there I just failed to pick up on this fact until it was too late. So my apologies to you the reader I’ll make up for it with a few extra humorous quips.
Question: What did the grape say when it got stepped on?
Answer: Nothing – but it let out a little whine.
Question: What’s a Scottsdale girl’s favorite wine?
Answer: ‘Daddy! can I go to Cabo!’
Hopefully I have won back your hearts and minds. I have? Good deal, then let get a move on. So many wines, so little time let’s get a move on.

Bridget’s sister is moving out of town so she some of the rest of their family where invited to join us for wine night. So we got the opportunity to here about Bridget life growing up.
I am so glad this isn’t a video show, because then you would know how poor my pronunciations are. I look and the type on one of this week’s wines and all I could say is, “no, no not even going to try.” So the only way I could advise to request this at your local liquor store is open this site on your phone point to Niederösterreich and say, “I want this.” You could do that or you could just ask for Gruber Veltliner by Grooner but what fun is that. If you don’t trust names you can’t read then you could get our other wine of the week Petite Sirah Vintner Blend by Ravens Wood, I knew how to say all of those words.
