Torre Ercilla 2006 Rioja Reserva

Categories:

We have tasted so many delicious wines from Spain, this one included.  The Torre Ercilla 2006 has a deep, rich flavor with a ruby red color.  The acidity is very low and I love the blackberry taste and smell.  Matching this up with steak would be perfect.  I would also enjoy this with some heavier appetizers. 


2007 Camillo Trebbiano D'Abruzzo

Categories:

We received this bottle from one of our wine of the month club specials. It was funny in the way that the more you drank it, you gained a much stronger appreciation for this refreshing wine!   I thought that the acidity was quite strong and you can absolutely taste the blend of citrus fruits.  Usually not the type of wine I gravitate to, but I am glad I did!  An easy to drink, light, dry wine.   A pasta or salad would be an ideal compliment.   


il Pino 2010 Pinot Grigio

Categories:

We enjoyed this wine while dining at a restaurant on the River in Upstate New York!  (St. Lawrence River that is).   It was served very cold and we enjoyed the light, fresh, fruity taste. The day was in the high 80's and we were sitting right on a terrace overlooking the River.  Our lobster salad matched perfectly with this wine. Go For It!
