Kosher Wine Club Due to holiday fun, I am just now digging through my notes from our last wine club that was a week before Christmas. Robin y Josh were wanting to have a holiday party and I was looking to drink some wine, so we combined the two into Kosher Wine Club.
It was a great little party and Josh made latkes and we all wore fun holiday glasses that made dreidels appear everywhere. The wines, surprisingly, were nice. No, really.
Across the board all the wines were pleasant enough (with the exception of a real cloyingly sweet Riesling). I thought many of these wines would be perfect for dinners with grandma or when there are people who aren't big wine fans. Pleasant. That's the word.
Here's what we liked...
First Place Borgo Regalle Moscato D'Asti Italy "I always try to end my evening with an Italian" "Yum" "It bit my tongue" "Sweet. Light. Refreshing." "Sparkling sweet wine? Brilliant."
Second Place Arriero Malbec Merlot (Malbec 70% Merlot 30%) Mendoza Argentina "I wanted it to be fuller" "This one still has a hand on your chest holding you back" "Very drinkable, pleasant" "It's a calm and nice Malbec" "Nice aroma"
Third Place Ramon Cardova Rioja 100% Tempranillo Spain "Rolling and smooth, but with a sharp finish" "I'm impressed how smooth and complex this one is" "Grand" "Delightful" "Complex"
