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!

Rating: ★★★★★★★½☆☆

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.

2005 Shiraz Cabernet Monastrell

comments: so this is an interesting wine from spain. This definately needs a couple of hours to breathe. It got much better later on. Nice blend, not many flavors. Like the bottle says “It won’t bite”.
