Umbria LaCarraia Sangiovese 2007

Type: Red Wine
Year: 2007
Price: 11.99
Rating: 3 - Will try it again
Where Bought: Otto's Menomonee Falls
Comments: A surprising nice wine. We didn't know what to expect, but it definitely is a good tasting wine. It's on the sweet thicker wine, but not too much. We will be trying it again, to see if it remains consistent as well.

Estancia Merlot 2010

Type: Merlot
Year: 2010
Price: 9.99
         8.99 (Sat. Oct. 26th 2013 - Otto's Brown Deer)
Rating: 4 - Would definitely buy again
Where Bought: Otto's Brown Deer
Update: (Oct. 26th 2013) Consistantly good. Howver, it's interesting that the regular price seems to have dropped. If this is the case, it's an even better buy.
Update: (Sept. 28th 2013) We purchased another bottle of Estancia Merlot 2010. So far, it consistently delivers great full body taste. I would say, it seems to exceed their Cabernet. We'll keep trying it as long as it continues to consistently provide a great tasting wine.
Comments: We purchased a 2010 version of the Estancia Merlot and it was fantastic. It consistently delivered, like its 2009 version a full body flavor not usually found in Merlot's.Another wine we would definitely buy again. (I haven't updated the price or purchase location, since I must have misplaced this purchase).

Blackstone Cabernet 2011/2012

Rating: 4 - Would definitely buy again
Where Bought: Otto's Brown Deer
Comments: (Sat. June 2th 2015 Update): In addition to consistancy, we noticed that it's almost better the second night, after it has been chilled in the fridge. 
Comments: (Sat. Nov. 23rd 2014 Update): This one is a 2010, but the label and taste is consistent.
Comments: As we can see from previous years, this wine has modified their label. However, it seems that the taste has improved. It was a good tasting cabernet in the past, but this year seemed exceptionally good. Along with the price, it's a value that's hard to beat. A very good tasting wine. I hope the next time we purchase it, it remains a consistent good tasting wine.

Yellow Tail Sweet Red Roo

Type: Read Wine
Year: ????
Price: 10.99
Rating: 1 - Would not buy again
Where Bought: Brook Falls Discount Wine & Spirits on Lisbon
Comments: This red wine was very sweet. Too sweet in fact. It was almost like it should have been a sipping liqueur. Not for our tastes.

Jose Cuervo Golden Margarita

Type: Margarita (Pre-Mixed)
Year: N/A
Price: 18.99
Rating: 4 - Would definitely buy again
Where Bought: Brook Falls Discount Wine & Spirits on Lisbon
Comments: Ok, I realize we have strayed from our usual "wine" list, but in this case we thought it was worth the effort and change. This is a pre-mixed Margarita, nothing to add, just chill, pour and enjoy on those hot summer days! We started with the smaller bottle, but it was more economical to just buy the larger bottle. It lasted longer and reduced the number of trips to the store. Generally, I've tasted other pre-mixes and they either required you to add something to it (like the liquor) or just tasted bad. This one is the best of both worlds. Like I said, just chill, pour and enjoy! Who could ask for more?

Yellow Tail Shiraz-Grenache

Type: Shiraz - Grenache
Year: ????
Price: 5.99
Rating: 3 - Will try it again
Where Bought: Brook Falls Discount Wine & Spirits on Lisbon
Comments: This Yellow Tail Shiraz is pleasant and consistent with the Yellow Tail Brand. We have found that Yellow Tail wine has been consistently good tasting and well priced. A winning combination. As I've said before, given the chance, we will try this one and their many other wines again.

Yellow Tail Pinot Grigio 2009

Type: Pinot Grigio
Year: 2009
Price: 5.99
          6.99 Sat. July 20th 2013 (Brook Falls Discount Wine & Spirits on Lisbon)
Rating: 3 - Will try it again
Where Bought: Brook Falls Discount Wine & Spirits on Lisbon
Comments: We are not much into white wines, however, it's summer and we wanted a change. Also, Yellow Tail was a very consistent brand that always delivered. So, If we're going to be daring and go off the familiar trail, let's at least try it using a brand that always delivered good tasting wine. This one was no different. It's refreshing, a hint of dryness, but not too much to be tasteless. A very good tasting white wine. Given the chance, we would probably try it again.
