Rex-Goliath

Rex Goliath is a pretty cheap yet good Cabernet Sauvignon made in California.

There's some back story about a giant 47 lbs rooster.  What a rooster and wine have in common, I couldn't tell you.

But at $4.00 a bottle, enough said.

Cheap + Good = I will definitely buy it again

Chateau Ksara

I decided to spend a little more than normal and went for Chateau Ksara from Lebanon.  I bought a 2009 Reserve Du Couvent which I think is a combination of Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Again, I know nothing about wine tasting or what to look for in color, taste or odor.

What I do know is that this bottle cost me about $25.00 (possibly because I bought it from a restaurant and not the liquor store).

All the same, I liked it a lot.  It was smooth, tasted great and it had that color of burgundy wine that you see people drinking in the movies when they're all high class and posh.

I would definitely buy this one again.

Mad Housewife

Mad Housewife.  The name alone is why I bought the wine to begin with.  This particular bottle is a Cabernet Sauvignon from California.

At only $7.99 a bottle, this one by far is my favorite.  Though I can't prove it, I kinda feel like Mad Housewife is a rip off of Angry Girlfriend. I sound a little full of myself, don't I?  It's because I am.

Which came first? The blog or the wine?  The world may never know.

Taste good (finished the whole bottle in one night) and the name is awesome.

Would I buy it again?  Fuck yes!

Fox Grove

This tiny bottle of Fox Grove I happened to try in flight from IAD to LAS yesterday.  I couldn't find an actual site for this winery.  I can tell you that it is a red wine.  Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon from South Eastern Australia.

I didn't really drink it for taste, as my goal was to get as drunk as possible (it was a 5 hour flight).  But at $7.00 a bottle for 187ML, that was definitely not going to happen.

Would I buy it again? Maybe.  Not on board an aircraft though.

Monogamy

The bottle of Monogamy I had was a 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon wine from California.

Cute label and it tastes pretty good.  How girly and lame of me to like a wine because of the label, but I can't help it.

Not too pricey either.  This particular bottle cost about $11.99.

Would I buy it again?  Hell yeah.
