big ass chard wine and wheels
In a few weeks time, we’ll be off to our honeymoon in California, to sample the ocean, the sand, and the wine. I came across this bottle at a nearby liquor store when trying to get a feel for our new neighborhood here in Denver. I purchased the Chardonnay, because the label has a tandem on it. (Oh, like you’ve never bought a bottle of wine based on the label, c’mon). Here’s what poppingcorks has to say about the Big Ass Cabernet:

“The idea of big ass Cabernet is distinctly Californian, and frankly it’s about time someone just put it on the label. If the Old World of Bordeaux is subtle and understated, like a mix of Glenn Close and Sophie Marceau, then California Cabernet generally falls somewhere between Bette Midler and Salma Hayek.”
