LYRICAL SPIRITS

Bay Bridge Red Blend

Let's go. 

The very first wine review. You'll be surprised to know (or expected) I chose the cheap wine. But hear me out. I didn't know it was cheap wine until recently. I also didn't know I owned this bottle until recently. 

Backtrack - I receive bottles of wine from friends. Most of the time, I just put them in the wine cooler and forget about them. But a few weeks ago, I ran out of my absolute favorite bottle of Pinot Grigio, so I decided to grab me a bottle of something red out of the cooler. I didn't pay attention to the brand, I didn't pay attention to its region, nothing. I grabbed. I uncorked. I enjoyed. 

After almost emptying the entire bottle (whoops) I googled where to get this bottle and was stunned our local Kroger sells it for $2.99. HELL YEAH! 

I mean, really - you don't have to buy and enjoy a $65 bottle. I'm not a snob, I drink any kind of wine. 

NAME: Bay Bridge Vineyards 
Variety: Red Blend
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: (Bottle kept this a secret)
Price:
$2.99

My review: Sweet. But not that super-duper-uber-sweet. It's kind of addicting. So you take a sip, right, and then another, and another... and suddenly, the damn bottle is empty. The first time I drank it I had chili with it, the perfect combo to warm you up on a cold winters day.

Try it. And leave me a comment if you like it or not. 

That's the beauty of opinions, everyone can have a different one.

CURRENT SITUATION

You know how 'Murica has these compilation CDs called NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL MUSIC  and they're hits from a certain time (I think we're on HITS 73 now)

Well, in Germany we have Bravo Hits and they started releasing in the early 90s, (April 1992 was the first one) We are up to 103 if I'm not mistaken - anywho, I'm currently going through them because I really don't like most new music. And Snoop Dogg started playing.
​
Now I have to convince the hubby we NEED a Snoop for our vinyl Collection.

Seriously - that would be cool, right?

I ran out of room for one genre in our big shelf - can you guess which one?

Question, what is Love? 
Answer, the same as hate if you're not careful!

WHO AM I?

Hi everyone, I'm Jeanie. Some of you may know me under my pen name Ava Danielle. 

I started this blog because I love wine. I'm not ashamed to admit it. I'd love to admit I love different wines from different regions, but that would be a lie. I'm an Italian Wine kind of girl however,  recently I found an old bottle of a California Wine in my cooler that I'm sure I received from a friend at one point. I braved opening it. I fell in love. 

Which brings me here... to this blog. 
How fun would it be to find all the nearest (and maybe even out of town) wine stores and try every single wine (within budget) and then report on it. 

Others like to mix up cocktails. 

I like wine. 

But wine isn't the only thing I like. 

So I've decided to combine my love for wine with my love for vinyls and at times books. 
Follow me on this journey. 

Follow me as I give you tidbit of facts on each record of my collection.

Follow me as I share stories that might connect me to the wine and vinyls. 

Follow me on this adventure. We might learn a little something together!
