Wine #1

Tarara Winery, Long-Bomb, Edition Two, Virginia 2008
Red Table Wine

A dear friend of ours gave us a case of Virginia Wines. Sweet! What makes it even more special is "Learn more about wine" is #2 on my list of New Year's Resolutions (NYR). So, for lunch today the dh and I broke open bottle #1.

My first impression is awesome - a screw cap! And, I DO mean that. I am a convert. I think plastic corks are great and screw caps are even better. They preserve the wine so much better.

As for taste...well, God bless them, it is a red Virginia table wine. That means....well, a blend of ???? From ???? vineyard????

But, in all, not a bad wine. The website says it retails for $20. Not sure if I agree with that price point.

So, a good start to the new year. A good wine and I am already on my way to accomplishing NYR #2!!!!
