Kitchen Sink Artisan Blends California White Table Wine

The best thing about our blog? Since moving into the new house a month ago, Mike and I have received a lot of wine and wine glasses as housewarming gifts. We now officially own more wine glasses than regular drinking glasses. It's always a bit funny when people proudly hand over their gift of wine, proclaiming that they spent less than $10 on it, seemingly for our sake. They can't just hand over the bottle; they feel the need to tell us how little was spent on the gift. Hilarious. Mike and Joy are cheap and easy to please! Hell, we can even afford to get them two bottles! I love it and wouldn't have it any other way. I knew this blog would come in handy. We've never owned more wine or wine glasses. Best thing ever!

Tonight's selection is one such gift, from my brother-in-law and his wife, my favorite sister-in-law. Since Tom has posted guest reviews on our blog recently, I knew they would choose a wine suitable for review. Their choice was perfect; it's so cheap that the label on the back of the bottle describes a red wine made by the same manufacturer instead of describing the white wine in the bottle. Oops. So much for quality control. Luckily, the taste makes up for the packaging mistake. This wine would be the bottle that I would pick up at the store if I didn't want to bother putting any effort into my choice of wine. It's a very mild white table wine and does not have the sharp aftertaste that most (cheap) white wines have. It's pretty bland and that isn't necessarily a bad thing; this wine would complement any dinner, no matter the meal. In fact, pour yourself a glass as you cook, before you have the meal. It'll relax you pretty quickly. I've found that I prefer white wines that aren't too sweet and this one fits the bill. It isn't too fruity either.

Perfect as a housewarming gift!
