The Wine Menu This Month

What are we serving at our house this month!  A few old favorites, a few new favorites, and something new! All Sauvignon Blancs.

Joel Gott and Seaglass are our favorite nightcaps so they are almost always found in our cooler.

I recently discovered 19 Crimes and love it - this is probably my fifth bottle.  I admit I bought the first bottle as a novelty but found it is really good.

My wife recently discovered Grand Sud and she loves it - probably the fifth bottle for her also.

And we haven't tried Ryer Estate yet - we'll let you know how it goes!

They opened up a Total Wine close to our house recently and we've been like a kid in a candy store.  Here is what we bought on our first trip!
A typical shelf in Total Wine.

I discovered the chain when I used to travel to the east coast about 15 years ago and tried to stop in as often as I could while back east.

A typical aisle.

Slowly they've expanded westward and opened a store in Sacramento about 10 years ago.  Since we fly in there regularly, we stopped in when we could.

And now they've made it to San Diego County!  We're all in!
They even have wine tasting classes regularly at a very reasonable price.
