jd_ Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Really trying to like these reds, but they may just not be for me. I've got a few more to try, but thinking about saving them as gifts or something. I think we've liked the different Rieslings the best. I've read it is the most popular to pair with chinese and thai food and other spicy food. Some of the rose and Moscato seem too sweet for more than one glass. Don't care much for them. Tried Apothic Crush Smooth Red blend tonight. It's my least favorite red so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdalert447 Posted January 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Jd, have the reds with a good steak. Take a bite of the steak, but don’t swallow it. Then take a sip of the wine and let it mix with the steak. Might change your opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdalert447 Posted January 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Had this at dinner. St Francis Red Zinfandel, Sonoma Valley, 15% AC. Was very good. Cost $45 at the restaurant, which means you can get it in the $15-$20 range at the store. Restaurant was great too, if anyone is ever in the Orlando area. It’s called Cala Bella at Shingle Creek. Italian joint with a $50 coupon available at restaurant.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdalert447 Posted January 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 Uncorking at least two bottles tonight. Failed to post last night, but drank two bottles of the Blackstone Merlot that -FH- recommended. I caught a deal at $4.99 per, at BJs, but would pay the usual $8.99 in the future. A very serviceable red, especially if having company and need to serve in bulk. Next time it’s at $4.99, I’ll probably scoop up ten if they’ll allow it.

jasson621 Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 From Texas Southwind Winery, the Blackberry wine I order some before I went to CR had a bottle last night when I got home. Solid 8 out of 10, I recommend it for people who like a bold fruity Cab. I ordered 12 bottles was about 22 a bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterman Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 Finishing the last bottle of some Robert Mondavi Private Selection 2014 Cabernet that I stocked up on a couple of years ago. It was $16.99 for 1.5 liter bottle so I grabbed 12. Great value. Don't buy the shitty new blend in the black bottle that they replaced this with. It is pretty disappointing. Tried some Blackstone cab a few weeks back and enjoyed it. Good price too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
