Wine and Company

Tonight, at the house of some dear friends, I watched a horrible yet hilarious movie and discovered an amazing new wine. My palate is pretty picky when it comes to wine. My standards are simple: if it tastes likes piss, I don’t drink it. But tonight, I discovered a soulmate of the grape variety. And what’s more, there’s lots of it, for lots o’ cheap. This wonder of simultaneous tastebud and budget delight is called the Barefooot Riesling. It’s sweet, fruity, full-flavored and just refreshing. Never thought I’d say that about a white wine. Who knew? It’s sweet enough into fooling you into drinking a few glasses greedily, and grown-up enough to remind you after those glasses are emptied that its not Welches. Pick up a bottle and let me know what you think.
