{ Wine Review IV: The Unsophisticated Wine Drinker }

It's been a little bit since I posted a wine review, even though I've been drinkin a lot anyways... so last night I made sure to review this one. 


Wine Review: Avalon Cabernet Sauvignon -Vintage 2009
Price: $10.99


Pros: I hadn't been drinking too much red wine lately (been really into champagne). BUT, the Loon had just made a delicious stuffed sirloin with asparagus, and figured that deserved a good decent red wine. and this one did not disappoint. The smell was light and fruity, and the taste was also fruity, I really noticed the hint of berries, and fairly dry. But I'm a pretty unsophisticated wine drinker... Also the 'alcohol' taste/ strength was not noticeable to taste, so very much a win in my book (remember unsophisticated).

Cons: maybe too dry? It boasted being aged in oak barrels for a few years, and neither the Loon nor I really got that flavor. 

 Overall: 85% - Totally would get this again (and pair it with red meat too). soo heart healthy, jk!

Found this lil' gem online (since I'm taking 6 weeks off for maternity leave, I've got some free time... maybe) today, and had to share. Reminds me of Drunk History, and it's now added to my Youtube Faves. and seems like something I might have to try out, Enjoy!
