[Unfortunately, this is the best of about 9 million pictures that were taken. But after a bottle of wine, I didn't give a rat's rump that they were all blurred]
I will wait here now while you go visit Average Joe Wino. Ryan and Vee write an excellent blog devoted to all things fermented and grapey.
After a few minutes of poking around his blog, you will be as excited as I was. I even went to the local “purveyor of fine liquors and spirits” to buy a few bottles of vino, relax with a funny movie (Hot Fuzz) and pretend I don’t have any Baby Goats for two hours.
Now that I have sampled a bit from three different wines, I can tell you I might soon be arrested for B.W.I (Blogging While Intoxicated).
For those that need to know, this glass of wine is from a bottle of Clos de los Siete 2005 from Mendoza, Argentina. It is a blend of Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. I am not really good at picking out hints of gooseberries and rotten plums, but I can say this is a full-bodied wine with some spiciness to it.
At Ryan’s recommendation, I downloaded all the podcasts available from winefornewbies.net and I have already listened to a couple of them…putting me into even more of a mood for wine!
Raise a glass!
