Chard-on-yeah

I now present you with the first “Wine of the Month” feature.

Chard-on-yeah wine by Trinchero Family Estates…an expression of joy upon discovering the pleasures of unoaked Chardonnay!

The first thing I noticed about this wine bottle at Cost Plus World Market was the name. Take out the C, and what do you get? Yep, rather amusing! The name was a great marketing idea, which sucked me in. However, the taste just didn’t blow me away. Instead, the taste was actually neutral. The fruitiness wasn’t as strong, but what I really liked best was that the taste was not too buttery. I’d recommend this wine for simple, cheap meals that don’t call for anything fancy. Heck, it was only $10 bucks.

Got crime?  CrimeReports is a cool website that shows all the crime on a map with clickable icons. (via Pearly)

Check out a robbery narrative in my area:

C-1 RPTS WHILE WALKING AT THE LISTED LOCATION HE WAS APPROACHED BY S-1 AND S-2 AT WHICH TIME S-1 STATED TO C-1 GIVE ME YOUR MONEY C-1 FELT THREATENED AND PULLED A WINE BOTTLE FROM HIS GROCERY BAG TO SCARE S-1 & S-2. C-1 STATED I DON”T HAVE ANY MONEY.

Many of my readers here know I am a wine enthusiast. So, naturally this narrative cracked me up. Sure, it’s terrible to get robbed and all, but I have got to give credit to this person using a wine bottle to hit the perpetrator!  

Hit the robber with a wine bottle and drink out of it to relieve the stress! Go wine!
