Just a quick post regarding a recent find:  I tried a bottle of this (found it on K&#38;L Wines for $6.99) and it&#8217;s a great daily drinker.
This is no 94 point wine, but it&#8217;s entirely enjoyable and very drinkable.  I&#8217;d compare it favorably to the Bogle chardonnay, although I prefer this bottle.  Interestingly enough, when [...]]]></description>

 While I&#8217;m engaged in working on a review of the Tom Bihn Aeronaut, I thought I&#8217;d pass this along &#8211; a red blend (primarily zinfandel) from  California winery Marietta Cellars.
Robert Parker awarded this NV blend 87 points; at Cork&#8217;d it&#8217;s only been reviewed once, but received 91 points; at epinions it received two ratings, [...]]]></description>

Just discovered this old Gary V. post on Charles Shaw/2 Buck Chuck/Trader Joe wines.  Interesting to see his take on several $2-$4 wines; even if you&#8217;re not into wine at all, you&#8217;ll find his reaction to several of these bottles priceless.  Check out his description of the Gamay Beaujolais (the 3rd bottle &#8211; @08:51) - hysterical!  (Any tasting [...]]]></description>

Let&#8217;s face it:  after a tough day filled with abusing employees, bickering with colleagues and pilfering office supplies, I need a glass of wine when I get home!  But where to buy it??
Since moving to The Middle of Nowhere about 5½ years ago, I&#8217;ve increasingly turned to the internet for wine purchases.  There is one [...]]]></description>
