We had some friends over on Saturday. Of course there was a bit of the Tres Ojos left over, so I poured myself a glass. All my friends were drinking beer, so I didn't feel bad. At that point, I had nothing to eat and wasn't snacking on anything. As I think I may have eluded to earlier, this is not a stand alone wine. Tres Ojos needs to be paired with something spicy.
But, being the true wino I am, I polished off my glass and looked forward to opening something else. Which I did and it was phenomenal. It was a sparking shiraz - The Chook. I wont blog on it except to say that I have already tried it and I highly recommend it. It's approximately $17.00 at Total Wine. It is definitley a stand alone wine. I could drink it all night, all by itself and be happy happy.
Now, on to the Thursday. I haven't yet selected the wine, but plan on going to either Total Wine or World Market tomorrow to pick it. I can't wait to experience the lovely label that catches my eye.......
