New Wines

Steve, Ashley & I ended up working out on the deck this afternoon. It was a beautiful day so we opened a bottle from our local wine club. We had Blake Slate Pinot Noir. It was very light & fruity. None of us cared much for it. Ashley suggested putting ice in the glasses like Sangria. Even that didn't make it taste better. If you light fruity, you'll like this wine.

With dinner, we had Pine Ridge Chenin Blanc-Viognier, as recommended by Rachael Ray's magazine. It was also a fruity wine, but more balanced. Flavors were more of a melon. It was very refreshing and enjoyable with our meal.
