SDMB Wine Club -- Lucky Week 13

I was just at Spec’s main outlet near downtown Houston and they had the Sauvignon Gris featured in a special sale display ( $11.42 ) - Yea, I did take advantage and stock up :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m having a hard time finding the time to go to Total Wine as it’s on the other side of town from where I live.

But maybe I’ll make the trek today after work. Heck, maybe I’ll go now and take a long lunch.

OK, I finally made it to Total Wine and we’re on Week 14 already. ’

I did manage to find the Muirwood Syrah and an Argentinian Bonarda though not the La Posta. Struck out on both the whites. I’ll be reporting in a bit late for this week. Let me sneak over to the Week 14 thread and see what’s up.

I feel better that at least one of the items was located outside of Houston.

Which Bonarda did you find?

I also didn’t think Denver was such a wine mecca, but it appears it is also. :slight_smile:
Sorry I haven’t been able to participate this week. I have been out of town (weddings) and drinking my fill of non-grape-based alcoholic beverages.

The Bonarda I found is a Lurton Bodega Jacques Francois 2006 Bonards from Mendoza Argentina. I haven’t tried it yet. Tomorrow perhaps.

From the reviews I was able to find on your Bonarda, I think you’ll find it to be very similar to the Muirwood Syrah, and that’s not a bad thing :stuck_out_tongue:
