The Wine...Finco Decero Remolinos Vineyard 2010...The scene...Dinner at home with some grilling going on. Had a grilled rack of pork to go with this malbec that we ordered on the thinking the wife enjoyed a bottle of malbec that we picked up at Jewel food store a few weeks back. Sorry Wine.com but not all of my wines are brought online. Wow, try saying that three time real fast...and getting back to the wine. Deep smelling fruits right away. Had a smooth taste with very little aftertaste of pepper. I like and wife say it okay...Our first malbec of the year and I guess with spring in the air our next bottle will be a chardonnay.

Style:Smooth & Supple

The Wine...Bodegas Volver Paso A Paso Tinto 2010...The scene...Family over for the Blackhawks game and chowing down on the wifes chili with a couple of wings to boot. Not really sure if the food pairing goes with this wine but I know for sure your not serving a white wine with wings and chili. Quite the wine expert we have become as we share this bottle. I had only a glass and loved the color, nice dark purple with a nice smell but the finish was a bit too dry for me. Another tempranillo that we have tried and on to the next bottle that we have ordered.

The Wine...14 Hands Cabernet Sauvignon 2010...The Scene...Dinner at home. Wife and I tried the Chardonnay of 14 Hands and really liked it so the thinking was to try the red one so I placed the order, dinner on the table and opend the bottle and away we go. Very fragrant wine that I'm smelling through the nose and the taste was just right. Not too thin in the mouth and slight pepper taste on the the finish...I order another 14 Hands bottle, another red one and get a kick out of the name...Hot to Trot red blend.

Style:Smooth & Supple
