Wine Wednesday: Alice White Chardonnay

10 days ago by Lake Norman Foodie

While perusing the wine aisle the other day, I ran across something new to me. Easily portable (perfect for picnics!) little cardboard boxes that hold wine -- sorta like a Capri Sun for adults. Each box holds almost 3 glasses worth of wine. Yes, it's box wine -- but at least it doesn't come in the g ...

Wine Wednesday: Heitz Chardonnay

24 days ago by Lake Norman Foodie

Ok, so I'm actually posting this on Thursday... but it's not my fault.... the dog ate my homework! Wait. No. That was a lie. I don't own a dog, and lets face it, my cat will only eat tuna. So, I was busy yesterday and I didn't get a chance to write this. Ok?? That's the truth! (Mostly....) But back ...

Wine Wednesday: Matchbook Tempranillo

46 days ago by Lake Norman Foodie

This wine is yet another new experience from my all too brief (aren't they always?) vacation last week. After dinner at High Thyme, my wife and I walked next door to a coffee store. This is one of my favorite coffee shops EVER. Do you know why? Time's UP! Not, it's not just because they sell coffee. ...

Wine Wednesday: Bell'agio Chianti

60 days ago by Lake Norman Foodie

I've gotta admit, I fell in love with this wine years ago -- because of the bottle. This sorta round bottle of wine is covered in a straw/wickerish covering. It just screams Italian, and since I love Italian food, this was a match made in heaven. In fact, I even went so far as to use one of these bo ...

Wine Wednesday: 2006 Pine & Post Chardonnay

67 days ago by Lake Norman Foodie

As I've mentioned previously, I have a love for the Pine & Post Cabernet. Dollar for dollar, I think it's the best value out there. So, the other day while cruising the Harris Teeter wine aisle, I came across a Pine & Post Chardonnay. Needless to say, I snapped it up in record time. This 2006 Chardo ...

Wine Wednesday: 2007 Newman's Own Cabernet Sauvignon

74 days ago by Lake Norman Foodie

Now, I know what you're thinking. The late Paul Newman's company - Newman's Own - makes salsa, marinades, salad dressing, cookies, lemonade, cereal, popcorn, and pizza. What's the only remaining food group missing? If you answered "Ice Cream," you're wrong. (But good idea!) You should have answered ...

Wine Wednesday: Paso Creek Merlot

88 days ago by Lake Norman Foodie

It's been several years since I last had the opportunity to visit California's Central Coast. This region's wine growing abilities were highlighted in the movie "Sideways," which was shot on location in some great vineyards. (Yes, this is one of my favorite movies) This means, that whenever I get th ...

Wine Wednesday: Pizza Week Edition

95 days ago by Lake Norman Foodie

Since I've declared this to be "Pizza Week", I've decided to do a run-down with the top three wines, which I've already reviewed, that would be perfect with a slice of pizza. These are full bodied wines, that will be able to hold-up against a slice of spicy pepperoni, or will compliment a more mild ...
