Hey Wine Lovers


Here's one of my new favorites ~ Vega Sindoa Cabernet Tempranillo 2005 . . . this is from Spain's Navarra region and I really love it. Lush and smooth, yet fresh and fruity . . . not puckery. I hate puckery. OK.... that's probably not educated wine lingo but that's my personal wine geek description. Here's the deal. Look for the wines with high point ratings, right? and great prices... this baby has a rating of 90 points!!! and it's only around 10 bucks a bottle. Check it out . . . let me know what you think! I bought mine at Binny's. Love, Katie

Hey, next time you're stranded, make sure someone calls you a "cab" . . . in this case, a cab-tempranillo! That's what I do! Salute Fellow Wine Geeks!
