WOW AMAZING NEW WINES!!!

This is our first edition of the BEST WINE BLOG EVER

CONO SUR - 2008 - CHILE - SAUVIGNON BLANC - $9.99

This wine was very cold and very wet :) It has all of the characteristics of sauvignon blanc, and was a very good choice. Nice bright citrus components. No overly grassy qualities or notes, just bright clean fruit, and a delight to drink in the afternoon. I've had better S.B., but I've definitely had much worse, overall, for the price this is quality Sauv. Blanc. If you feel the need to drive in the afternoon after drinking this wine (definitely not recommended!), make sure to wear your helmet!

"CAVALIERE" - 2008 - ITALY - SANGIOVESE - $7.99

This is by far the best sangiovese you will find this year! Rich bright fruit, relatively low acidity. A mouthful of pleasure. We've tasted sangiovese that we've paid double the price for, and it didn't come close to what we've found in this bottle! Wow! Let me repeat, we've paid double the price for great sangiovese and it still does not compare to this once in a year find... Don't sleep on this wine. Buy your case tomorrow!

BASKET CASE - 2006 - WASHINGTON - CABERNET SAUVIGNON - $11.99

Okay, so you might be a little crazy if you try this one... but then again, I'm feeling a little nuts just writing about it. It is a fruit bomb! And for Washington State Cabernet, you aren't going to find wine as good and as inexpensive as this one. This is the kind of Cabernet you drink with some Sweet Ribs, rather than a juicy steak, remember: Fruit Bomb! Buy as much as you can for immediate drinking, it is a True Crowd Pleaser. If you are looking for something more elegant or tannic, hold off a bit we'll find you something else, but if you want something you can drink right now with a bunch of crazies... this is your best bet.
