Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.

2010 Red Table Wine 228 – Arche’ Wines; Saint Jo, Texas
Behold! This blend of Syrah,
Cabernet, and Merlot reveals some delightful signs of life after several years
in the cellar. The acids are good and it still holds a nice balance. This
wine also has a nice finish that tapers off quickly. Some of the fruit notes
are hard to discern in the nose, but this one still has a pleasant sensation
overall when you sip and savor. The color is showing signs of aging and
is getting lighter. If preserved well in the cellar, this could hold for
another year. We don’t recommend aging this one too much longer though
and suggest if you have any bottles lingering in your cellar to pop the cork
and enjoy them now. Cheers!
