Wine Blog & Wine Reviews by The WineGuy

A place to keep tasteful wine reviews of my favorite wines. I started posting wine news to my wine blog for you and everyone else, sometimes it there is humor involved because I drank the whole bottle before I posted....hiccupppp!. But Seriously, It has been a few years now and I have had a lot of friends ask me to recommend different wines from Chile or Spain or Italy or California...and then they want to run out and buy them. So I started keeping track of the wines I like and don't like along with some fun wine facts, wine articles and ratings and wine maps. One day I may even offer wine merchandise here at WineGuys.info. I hope I can help you enjoy the art of wine as much as I do.

But please remember to drink responsibly...cause otherwise you'll find yourself with no wine!

2004 / Red Blend
where: Home
comments: Called MINER, and classified as a Napa Valley Red Wine. This was a tasty wine, reminiscent of a French Bordeaux. A hint more alcohol tasting than what I usually like, but very smooth and fruity for a blend like this. Smells of plum and rich grapes. Drank alone, no meal tie in.

Cabernet Sauvignon: 52%
Merlot: 26%
Cabernet Franc: 21%
Malbec: 1%

2005 Le Volte, Castagneto Carducci
where: Il Forno, saybrook, ct.
comments: Ornellaia philosophy! – an Italian wine with some really nice full bodied flavor. Had some great legs and texture, that really went well with the Bolognese Meat Sauce Dish that I had. Amazing braised beef, really nice chunks…delicious.

2003 Navarra
where: Cigar Party
comments: Super dry. Great with Prime Rib and Stogeees….(cigars). This was a interesting blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet 10% temperanello. It drank very smooth with hearty flavor…but will keep your mouth nice and dry to enjoy all of your food.



REDS

2005 LODI
where: home
comments: Another $9.99 classic. Very delicious rich tasting wine, spicey plum..but not too spicey. Smooth finish. This is my favorite type of wine. The kind that has a lot of flavor but keeps it in the mouth, not down the throat. You’ll find most of my favorites tend to follow this theory.

Enjoy with Steak, barbecue, pasta(as usual)
