Washington Post Wine Club Review (with video)
I recently received a shipment from the Washington Post Wine Club, and took the time to do a little video review of the service. Of course, my daughter was watching me do the video, and wanted to join in, so she did a little recording afterwards. Then Todd, with his video editing magic, spliced things together and came up with this final product:
The Washington Post Wine Club is a great little club whose only relation to the newspaper is the name. But the selection of wines from the club is better than I expected (coming from a club tied to a newspaper). You can read my full review of the Washington Post Wine Club, but I also wanted to share with you my experience with one of the bottles.
My shipment came with:
- 2012 Valley View Viognier, Rogue Valley
- 2012 Pierre Henri Saint-Fiacre, Muscadet Sevre et Maine Sur Lie
- 2011 Vietti Tre Vigne Barbera D'Asti
- 2012 Finca Ayles Aldeya, Carinena
- 2012 Edgebaston The Pepper Pot, Stellenbosch
- 2012 Chateau Cransac Resolument Negrette Fronton
The wine was delicious, and the tasting notes made it easy to reinforce my knowledge of which wines to choose with which dishes (although I've been doing this for some time now, I still like to know the wine that I'm choosing is the right choice).
Now for the good part:
