I picked up this wine because I have had Columbia Crest Two Vine series before and was never disappointed. The price is right and the quality has always left me impressed. Anyway, this one caught my eye because I did not really know what i was in the mood for and since it was a blend I figured I would give it a try. |

- Aromas of Strawberry and clove
- Cranberry and spice in the flavor
- Somewhat tart but in a pleasant way
- Slight taste of a really ripe and juicy plum on the finish
- Interesting,intriguing, and keeps you attentive…like a very good college professor that engages you with so many things that you wonder where the time went in the class….ok..ok..ok…not really…it is more like the class clown that keeps you awake in a boring philosophy class because you never know what he is going to do next…Yup…thats more like. This wine was a lot of fun!!!!!

This is a California Syrah from Santa Cruz. This is a cousin wine of Big House Red that we reviewed earlier. |
| $11 from Safeway. |

- Smells of cinnamon and wet earth.
- Hints of peach in the taste.
- Tastes of boysenberry.
- This wine would be much better with a good solid 1/2 pound cheeseburger fresh off the grill.
- While this wine is O.K…..I am not sure that I would be willing to go to the Slammer for this bottle.

This is a Merlot from the Robert Mondavi Private selection. It is very common wine that can be found just about anywhere. We picked this up on short notice and had it with sausage and peppers. |
| $8 Purchased at Safeway. |

- Hints of toasted oak and red berries in the aroma.
- Sweet off the start
- Fruity with berry flavors.
- Slightly tart with moderately high tannins.
- Mild strawberry finish.
- Simple but decent. Kind of reminiscent of watching reruns of Friends. You enjoy it but it does not excite you and you wish something else was on.
