   |  Customer Wine ReviewsMarch 28, 2007 at 12:08 am by john Our first guest review is by Sherrie of The Legion of the Purple Teeth . Sherrie just has a way of cutting to the chase which we admire here at CoWineCo. Have a good review of your own? Post away. And maybe, just maybe, you might get a shiny prize in the shape of a post in our newsletter. Ooooooh, exciting. No seriously, post your own reviews. We want something to read for a change.
REVIEW: Gelsomina Lambrusco Montovano, Italy - $11.99 (more in stock next week!)
"This is not a wussy wine for your wussy wuss friends who love pinot grigio (and also pan flutes). It is a sparkling red, with an appealing rich dark brick color, and a zingy perky acidity. That tartness would go so well with a nice tray of charcuterie. You know, some hunks of Italian salame. Or slices of sopressata. Ooh, is that grana padano? I’ll just make myself a little plate if you don’t mind… oh my, I drifted off there to a wine tasting in my imagination. Don’t feel pressured to finish it off in one sitting because it’s fizzy and you’re living hard and you have no place to go tomorrow morning. Get yourself one of these Metrokane bottle sealers for bubblies (mine came with my Rabbit opener), and pop it back in the fridge. On day 2, I had it with some Quercia speck I picked up from Whole Foods and it held up just fine. No crackers, no cheese, just a few slices of buttery rich smoked pork and some tart Lambrusco. I’ll gladly get another bottle of this special treat, and have it with hearty grilled chicken sausages. Meat + wine = heaven. Sorry, my vegetarian amigos. This post was more about meats and meat enjoyment than what it should have been about. I promise to write about brussell sprouts…someday. Other Random Information:
Get thee to her blog! Leave a comment  The Legion Of Pam Andersons said:Jen & John, John & Jen, their gonna do it together! Watching reruns of Webster and cHiPs together, that is! Seriously though, we think Sherrie is playing the wine snob card to the hilt by calling any wine drinker a wuss. If you enjoy wine, even Jesus forbid, pinot grigio, you are part of the wine loving community that Colorado Wine Company serves. Which brings us to the delightful, and affordable Caparone Aglianico 2002 from Paso Robles. Oh, wait a minute... before we get to that, we just want to make sure Sherrie is okay with all of the stinky dead animals rotting her in stomach. Back to the Agli... It was a decadent, spicy wine with hints of anise, brandied cherries, dark fruit, and tobacco. It paired wonderfully with our penne arrabiata. Thanks Colorado Wine Company! Hope this doesn't rub your big sopressata heiny the wrong way, Sherrie. March 29, 2007 11:55 PM John said:Sherrie's reviews are all in good fun. If you read down her blog she goes on to review Gruner Veltliner and, god forbid, a semi-sweet white from Connecticut. The disparaging of Pinot Grigio was just a joke because, well, undeservedly, it has that reputation. As for the vegetarian/meat-eater debate -- wow, that could go on for faaaaaaar too long so I'll just leave that one alone. Nice aglianico review. The sad part? It's gone for a year. blech.

I have plenty of pinot grigio guzzling friends and they are also chard drinkers and champ drinkers and sometimes I pour a Syrah down their throats that they love. The only wine snobbery I feel is when I bring a $10 bottle of wine from the CoWineCo to a party and it kicks the ass of everyone else's wine. :) April 8, 2007 10:11 PM brukieebabiee said:viagra :-O acheter viagra en pharmacie sans ordonnance 2853 June 25, 2011 10:23 PM eratmlk said:medrol =-OO buy bactrim cheap mwurdf asthma motrin nasal polyps 753215 gabapentin 1035 June 25, 2011 10:34 PM dogglks said:celebrex viagra %O allegra d online pharmacy >:-]] amoxil online 438 July 1, 2011 8:48 PM SharmanLtd said:propecia results bnvw vardenafil levitra online ctu tramadol dbet buy dreampharm from tramadol 356 July 1, 2011 10:15 PM THLovester said:mobile home insurance 07674 health care insurance 71965 insurance home wqpro July 14, 2011 8:39 PM China wholesale said:OMTOP.COM, a reliable Chinese wholesale & retail online shop since 2004.
