This will be a short one today as I wrote my ass off this weekend. I love writing this segment, don’t get me wrong. I finished my Top Forty Wines Under Twenty Bucks list on Saturday which you can find on my Blue Collar Wine Guy blog. I really enjoy putting this list together, but as you can imagine it takes a little time. One of the things that bother me about many lists that go out there is they don’t put any tasting notes or reasons why they put a wine where they did. OK, I get it. We are supposed to just accept their top 10 because they are experts and know what they are talking about. Right? I put my tasting notes in my list so you can at least get some idea what the wine is about and why I put it on the top forty list. I realize they you may not agree with all my choices and that’s fine. At least you can get an idea as to whether or not you might want to purchase one of the wines on the said list. Hit the link above and check it out.
This week I will be fervently working on my “Winery Of The Year.” I need to make a phone call to the wine maker so I can put the piece together. i am very excited about this winery. All the wines I’ve tasted from them have been exceptional for the money. One of their wines made it in my Top Forty list. Only one you ask? Yes, simply because most of their wines are at twenty bucks or above. Don’t get me wrong, they are not what I would call pricey, most being under thirty bucks. For the quality you get, they are a screaming value! I will put the article up by the end of the week in both this blog and my other on the P.I. I can’t wait for you to try them.
My You Tube channel is in full swing. I am putting out episodes on Tuesday and Friday with regularity now. The last two feature wines that should go well with prime rib if that is what you are having for your Christmas dinner. This week I am featuring the wines of Italy, not just from one region, but from all over the country. I found a couple of gems, so check them out and don’t forget to subscribe to my You Tube Channel so you don’t miss any of the action.
Cheers!
