This is a Malbec Bonarda Blend from Argentina. |
| $5 from Fresh & Easy |
 |
- Very light scents of fruit with a predominant alcohol smell
- Strong tastes of blackberry at first
- Hints of pipe tobacco follow the fruit
- A lot of body but the flavors are not defined….they tend to meld together
- A bit unrefined and boisterous….like the obnoxious friend everyone has in their circle… You can handle him in small doses and you don’t really hate him….you just need to limit your time with him before he becomes a little too much.

This is a Cabernet Sauvignon that my wife Lynnette picked up from Sprouts. She bought it so I could make a pan sauce to go with the steak she purchased as well for me to grill. |
| $5.00 at Sprouts |
 |
- Light, fruity and pleasant aromas
- A rush of fresh raspberries right off the bat
- Oak undertones
- More Sweet and fruity than earthy but not overwhelmingly sweet
- This is not as big and bold as you might expect from cabernet but it is still good.
- Decent wine, but you feel a little bit tricked since it did not have the usual characteristics of a Cab…Kinda like going to a movie because of the previews you saw….Then the movie turns out to be very different than you expected….but the pan sauce was excellent!

This is a Primitivo form the Puglia region of Italy. |
| $5 Purchased at Fresh & Easy. |

- Smells light and mineraly.
- Black cherry aromas.
- Full bodied and dry with subtle tannins.
- Nice berry flavors with just a hint of spice.
- Take this wine for what it is…It is a 5 dollar bottle. Kinda like having a hot dog on this grill….If you are expecting an expensive fillet mignon then you will be disappointed but….if you know that you bought a package of hot dogs and know the price of them then you will appreciate it for what it is. Besides…sometime a hot dog just his the spot.
