Here we are…again. Another month gone that we’ll never get back and it’s a Monday…haha…just kidding. No negativity here. April flew by as all time does for us, nothing like having careers and a baby to soak it all up.
We had some new wines last month and also revisited many that we were familiar with. My three favorites were:
Baker & Brain (I’m not listing one, had a few at Earth Day and everything was awesome, period. Pinot Noir, Grenache Blanc…just go check them out!)
2010 Record Family Wines Merlot (Had this one at the Paso Robles CAB Collective, never had their wines before)
2009 K. Furtado Rose of Syrah (This was given to us, we had not had this before either)
Annie’s three favorites were:
2011 Zocker Gruner Veltliner – awesome Summer wine, now that things are warming up!
2010 AmByth Viognier – Delicious biodynamic Viognier!
1980 Eberle Cabernet Sauvignon – What can I say…this was an incredible opportunity to try an older Paso Robles Cab, offered up at the Paso Robles CAB Collective.
So this was a really interesting list for both of us, from a 1980 Cab to several wines we had not had before, to interesting varieties like Gruner Veltliner. I love months like this. Trust me, we drank a lot of stuff that we are VERY familiar and there’s nothing wrong with that but for me much of the wine adventure is trying new things.
So what new wine or wines have you tried recently that you would recommend to a friend?
