Yesterday was the presidential election. Not going to spout any political opinions I’m tired of them and I’m sure you are too. Just thought it would be nice to record what we were drinking the night after the election. That my friends will be all the politics you will be finding here.
Welcome once again to another exciting edition of Wednesday Wine Night, I know your excited to get to the reviews, first thought I would give you a little Halloween recap. We didn’t dress-up for Halloween night but we did all dress-up over the weekend. See we still have our childlike spirit! Bridget was a Garden Fairy (she was just precious). Dante was half-business and half-country (you won’t find that in the stores.) Gina was a classy lady from the 50’s (she tends to be the classy one.) Chad was dirty sheriff (I’ll let you figure that one out.) Thaddeus was Chris Farley as a Chippendales (we think he may secretly have a collection of stripper costumes in his closet.) We all enjoyed our Halloween weekend, I hope you did too.
This week we tried one that was already popular with a few of us a Rose from New Age, and also guess what a Shiraz by Fat Bastard which was the first wine that was suggested to us in the comments on Getting down on the farm. Now I am going to warn you that it wasn’t to popular, but please suggest others in the comments or by email contactus@wednesdaywine.com.

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.

This week we had a few guests join us on this weeks wine adventure, Miss Deborah and her crew. They let us in on a little secret we hadn’t heard before. Apparently some of the 99 cent stores have misprint wines for sale, so you could get some quality bottles for one heck of a deal. We will be investigating this further.
So this week we broke our streak, of high rated wines, oh well when you pick your wines the way we do you’re bound to miss once in awhile. We did have a good mix and and everyone had at least one that they liked, just nothing we all agreed on.

In the last few months Wednesday Wine Night has become very popular in our social group. Everyone wants in; I mean it is justifiable midweek drinking who wouldn’t want in? So it’s not uncommon for someone who not a regular to join us, this was the first week in a while that it was just our standard cast and crew which made it nice and chill, sort of a Wine Night Classic.
This Week on Wednesday Wine Night, the group sampled a Sparkling Raspberry from Weibel Vineyards. Then they decided why stop now and tried a Chardonnay called Cupcake by Central Coast and that’s not all, they washed down the Cupcake with a malt beverage (it didn’t call itself wine on the bottle but it tasted enough like wine for us, so it counts) Verdi Spumante.

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.
