I fully admit that I am a sucker for red blends. I mean, I have had such wonderful experiences with them! How can you go wrong if you take a bunch of wonderful reds and mix ’em together? Ok, it’s a LOT more complicated than that, but in my humble opinion, a red blend brings out the best in each wine used to make it.
Go ahead and shake your head and say – wine in a box? Really? Yes really. I have nothing against the container that my vino comes in, as long as the wine itself is good. And really, haven’t we all been told not to judge a book by its cover? Same thing with wine. One…
If you even think about sipping on wine, I am sure you have seen these new offerings from SomeWine. You can’t miss them, because their labels are designed by the the very funny folks at Someecards – the ones we all pin and share on Pinterest. And send to our other Winey Friends on Facebook….
A few weeks ago I reviewed an Israeli wine in honor of our recent trip to Israel. That was a white wine. (Winey Tasting Notes: Revisiting an amazing trip with Israel’s Mediterranean Soul wine.)

It’s here…you can feel it in the air. The leaves are turning colors, there’s a coolness in the air, the colder nights, the dewy mornings. Yup, fall has arrived. I’ve never made any bones about the fact that I’m a weather driven wine sipper. And the thought of fall turns my taste buds to all…
I have never made it a secret that The Winey Family lives in Cleveland. (OK, an eastern suburb, but when people ask, we say Cleveland.) And even if you don’t like sports, or basketball or The NBA, I am sure you have heard what we have just been through there for the past two roller…
Our Chloe I have been writing an Empty Nest series of reviews for the past 8 months. The reason for this is that my Winey Household became an empty nest once our youngest left for college. All the wines in this series are dog themed. The reason for this is because the Winey Dogs are…
