Lifestyle: Wines, How do you store yours?
Lifestyle mondays
I am a novice when it comes to wine.
I’ve gone to a few wine tastings over the years, sat in on a class at my local wine retailer, read “Wine for dummies” and other books, and I’ve even hosted a wine tasting or two.
What I’ve learned is that wine is a very personal experience and that no matter what the cost.. or write up…..you simply like what you like.
I purchase wines by recommendations, my favorite grape, cellar, and type of food I’m eating.
It’s a delightful experience to see what type of journey your taste buds will go on with each new wine discovery.
Just yesterday, I was up for something new in a Viognier or Sauvignon Blanc under $20. Here is what was recommended.
The Rosemblum for it’s medium body with complex characters that begin with tropical fruit and ends with a crisp citrus finish. And the Joel Gott, for it’s refreshing lemony/mineral nature, to pair well with salads, and seafood.
Joel Gott 2011 Sauvignon Blanc, $7.99 and Rosenblum 2009 Viognier $17.99

A wine Armoire is a great idea, especially those that lock like this one.
