House red

What's your house red?

Mine is La Finca Malbec from Trader Joe's. It's $3.99 a bottle (major steal!) and I typically throw one in my hand basket at the end of every TJs trip. Well, I guess it's correct to say I have one in my hand when I check out at TJs because my hand basket it full and digging ferociously into my forearm by the time I get to the wine aisle.

I know some of you live in states or countries where you can't get wine at your local grocery store and let me emphatically say THAT FUCKING SUCKS.

Array of empty bottles from my less decisive days. Velvet Moon Cab was my former house red (Cabs and me get along famously), but luckily the La Finca Malbec replaced it with 2 dollars to spare!

When one of my girlfriends gets here in a week we're going to do a blind taste test to help me land a house white. I'll be selecting bottles in the 3-7 dollar range from TJs - primarily Pinot Grigios and Chardonnays. Any recommendations?

[what the Google machine brings up when you search for La Finca Malbec] And on that note, how are people so free about having their physical persona on the internet? I think I'm too old for that mentality, coming of age without the internet and all. Hats off to the free!
