2006 Castle Rock Mendocino County Pinot Noir

›
Being in yet another Pinot Noir mood, I grabbed this one from the wine fridge having completely forgotten why and where I bought it. I get ...

2004 Vitiano Falesco

›
Another Costco find for about $7. Cherry and oak on the nose. Raspberry, cherry, a bit of cinammon, spice, and a bit of oak...sadly, not ...

2006 Mollydooker The Maitre D Cabernet Sauvignon

›
The 2005 Mollydooker was such a huge hit, I didn't hesitate grabbing a few bottles of the 2006 line. This ran me $20. Menthol and ani...

2004 Shoofly Shiraz

›
We've been on a bit of a Shiraz kick so I grabbed this one out of the wine fridge – I had forgotten everything about it other than I lik...

2006 Monmousseau Rose d' Anjou

›
Last year's vintage of this was one of my all time favorite roses, I figured grabbing the new one would be worth a shot for $9. An easy...

2006 O'Reilly's Oregon Pinot Noir

›
We had this at a tasting a while back and enjoyed it thoroughly so I grabbed a bottle. Strawberry, cola, and a bit of funk on the nose. ...

2003 Penfold's Regional Selection Shiraz Coonawarra

›
A reliable producer, under $10 at the shop, and a “Limited Edition” on the label pretty much guaranteed I'd be picking this one up. Bla...

2005 Clay Station Viognier

›
A while back I picked this up for when I was in the mood for something different, I don't recall the price but it couldn't have been...

N/V Cockatoo Ridge Brut

›
This one was $12 at my local wine shop and came with hearty recommendations from the owner. A bit of honey on the palate and some crisp gre...

2005 Bistro Wine Pinot Noir

›
I found this one for about $8 at the local Costco a couple weeks back and felt that since we've had luck with cheap French Pinot Noirs I...

2005 Two Hands Gnarly Dudes Barossa Valley Shiraz

›
Not to be confused with the Gnarly Head Zin, this is the Gnary Dudes Shiraz from Australia. I found this at Costco for $25, which is at le...

2005 Trader Joe's Late Harvest Moscato Paso Robles

›
I saw this one for $5.99 at Trader Joe's and figured it would be worth a shot. The only “bad” dessert wine we've had was still per...

2005 Turn Me Riesling

›
This one grabbed my eye and for $8 I thought it was worth a shot. Not much on the nose really, a bit of alcohol and that's about it. ...

2006 Kirland Central Otago Pinot Noir

›
Since we've had some decent luck with the Kirkland label before, I figured I'd grab a bottle of this at $17. Not much else but eart...

2004 Fox Valley Winery Heritage Collection

›
I felt like supporting a local(ish) winery and saw this one for $15. We've visited this winery about a year ago and felt they were easi...

2005 Mollydooker The Boxer Shiraz

›
Well, it's great to be back – The Wineauxs have been on hiatus for close to two months. We moved and have slowly been settling in. Our...

2004 Ditka's Da Coach Merlot

›
I found this one for $9 and figured since Ditka's Pinot Grigio wasn't that bad, perhaps this would be worth a shot. Cherry, but mai...

2001 Ruffino Riserva Ducale Oro Chianti Classico

›
While we've had plenty of lower end Chianti, I don't remember ever even trying a higher end one. I was poking around our local Cos...

2006 Menage a Trois Rose

›
It's hot and sticky which means I grabbed a rose. We've had this one for a while and I think I paid around $9. A bit of strawberr...
