    Trying on a new Ensemble from a few old friends.


    2012 - 12.05

    Wine drinkers make the best friends. What's your name again? 

    I’m adding a new feature to the review this week, so will be looking for ways to make the reviews more interesting to you the reader. So please feel free to tell us what you like, hate, or would like to see in the comments or via email contactus@wednesdaywine.com and I will do my best to make something worth following.

    Hello again my lovely little lushs, we’re glad you’ve decided to join we again. What a wine night we have for you. Three little wines rated by all five of our lovely people. Yes that is correct tonight was the first night in almost two months that everyone of us where able to make it.

    Happy Winesgiving!


    2012 - 11.27

     

    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.

    A threesome in three ways.


    2012 - 11.14

    Funny Flirting Ecard: I thought joking about a threesome might lead to not joking about a threesome. 

    Sadly this week both Gina and Chad where unable to be attend Wine Night. This is the first wine night Chad has ever missed and it was for a very important reason. Gina and Chad you were both missed, though in true wine night style the show must go on, so Bridget, Dante, and Thaddeus soldiered though and had their threesome for the night. I believe this was the first ever wine night for the where the guy to girl ratio favored the guys; I guess it was Bridget’s lucky night being surrounded by a couple sexy beasts.

    We will be presenting you with three wines tonight and one is a Moscato from Ménage à Trois cause three is our magic number. We also have a California Red Blend from Devil May Care, as well as a Pinot Noir from Asti Winery called Cellar No 8. So pull up a glass and relax because we’re diving in.

    So much red to celebrate a great halloween


    2012 - 10.31

    Angel drinking wine.

    Happy Halloween everyone from all of us at Wednesday Wine Night!

    It’s our first holiday wine night and it special one indeed. We have a total four wines to review for you. Two of which you have probably seen on the wine list before you lushes. Those wines were only rated by a few of us so we brought them back so everyone could give them a try. Don’t feel slighted though because this isn’t just a rerun episode, we have new wines for you too. So set back with a glass of your own and your shopping list cause we’re about to tell you what to buy.

    Friends and booze you know it’s a good night.


    2012 - 10.24

    Keep calm and carry a glass of wine.

    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.
