Winey Tasting Notes: Big Churn Chardonnay

I trust that she will never ever ever forget to send me her birthday/Christmas list (the two days are not far apart, so it’s normally a massive list). I also trust that she can listen to my description in a phone call and buy me a yummy bottle of wine.

Winey Tasting Notes: I Am The 20%: Pareto Estate’s Eighty 20 Red Blend and Chardonnay

ByThe Winey Mom

“The Pareto Principle, also called the 80/20 rule, states that 80% of the results come from 20% of the effort. This is true in the world of wine, where 80% of wine is consumed by 20% of the people. With Pareto’s Estate, we raise our glasses to those of us that take up the slack…
