{ Wine Wednesday } Great Wine Made Simple


In my fantasy life, I seriously contemplate becoming a Sommelier {a trained and knowledgeable wine professional}.  After reading this book, our vino vocabulary was truly kicked up a notch.  It's not only a great read, it's easy to understand, and its readers are guaranteed a first-hand informational session from a certified Sommelier.  One of our favorite "bang-for-your-buck" wines has to be the Kim Crawford Marlbourough Savignon Blanc from New Zealand.  It has a crisp and powerful punch of gooseberry, citrus and passion fruit flavors; and it is easily paired with salads, seafood, and vegetarian dishes. Last night, it went perfectly with some garlic seasoned green beans, wild Atlantic salmon, and some quinoa tabbouleh.
