Intro

Hello. I'm here to talk about wine. Wine, you might say? Do you mean the snobby drink that the elitest folks drink from their fancy-pants stemware while talking about how ignorant I am? Well, sort of. However, nowadays, wine has become increasingly accessible to anyone.

Take, as an example, Casa Solar. This Spanish winery produces a red, Tempranillo, and a white, Viura. They're both complex and delicious, and can be had for less than $6 a bottle. When compared to other budget-minded wines like "Two Buck Chuck", the Casa Solar blows them away. Sure, the Casa Solar is slightly more expensive, but the overwhelming superiority makes it more than worth the additional expense.

If you want to learn more about wine, talk to your local grocer/wine retailer about an informational wine kiosk. They are a great way to learn more about wines without having to embarrass yourself. Here in Milwaukee, there's a great kiosk at the Metro Market on Van Buren. The Wine Kiosk is made by WineConnect, a Minnesota company. It's the best of the Wine Kiosks that I've seen.
