A Couple Worth Drinking




Hello Winos Out There!

I had the pleasure to drink a couple of real bargains the other day and wanted to share them with you so you could run out and buy them!

Sincerely Sauvignon Blanc from South Africa and Protos Ribera Duero from Spain.




Neil Ellis Wines produces this wine and named it Sincerely as a tribute to Sancerre, a region in France known for world class Sauvignon Blanc. A large number of these wines on your favorite wine shop's shelves are from New Zealand, certainly more than South Africa. South African Sauvignon Blanc lands somewhere in between the big, in your face, grassy style of New Zealand and the refined, subtle, sophisticated style of Sancerre. This wine is well worth the $8.99 price tag at your local Wine Discount Center.

Prontos Ribera Duero is a wine named after that famous region in Spain and produced from 100% Tinta del pais grapes. It has been aged 6 months in American oak barrels and another 6 months in the bottle before releasing. This wine shows berry fruit on the front end with a touch of vanilla on the finish with soft tannins. Available at your local Binny's Beverage Depot for $7.99!


Cheers!
