More Tastings
After drinking another bottle from Sam's Club, I decided I won't be trying their wines. The wines at the local HEB (Inkberry) are better & less expensive than the ones from Sam's. Tonight we opened Greg Norman's Cabernet. It was just a plain wine with not much body to it. There was a lightness about it that I wouldn't expect from a Cab. Needless to say, we won't be getting more of Greg Norman wines.

Bottle Shock
Have you seen the movie, Bottle Shock? It tells the story of the California wine industry and the contest between French & California wines. An Englishman with a French wine shop visited the California wines and set up the contest. The California wines won, earning respect for their wines.
After the credits, I learned that Stag's Leap was the winery the movies is based on. I'll be picking up some of their wine on my next shopping trip.
