Whatcha Drinking these days?
Those that know me, know I can be a little snobby about wine. I suppose that's one of my many charms. I am always on the look out for inexpensive and drinkable wines; you know, a wine you can drink during the week without breaking the bank. Several months ago, I found 2007 French Maid Pinot Noir, and I am hooked!
I was first drawn to the deep red label with a woman dressed in a French Maid outfit with fishnet stockings drinking a glass of wine. It's very French in an ohh-la-la kind of way. And face it, I am a sucker for marketing and thought...sure I'll give it a try. I was amazed at the earthiness & depth of this wine with notes of black fruits and a little smoke. It goes well with food, but can also be enjoyed alone. I have now resorted to buying it by the case, as my friends and family have really taken to it.
It goes well with food, but can also be enjoyed alone without being overwhelmed. I have now resorted to buying it by the case, as my friends and family have really taken to it. All of this for $10-$13 a bottle is making me think we might all need a little French Maid in our cellar.
