Red Wines (12.5% and under): Thirtysomething picks for Wine Blogging Wednesday #22

June 16, 2006 by serge the concierge

Our friend Tim at 'Winecast' did not waste time putting together the summary for Wine Blogging Wednesday number 22. Read it and you will find some 30 suggestions of Red Wines (including ours) with 12.5 % alcohol or less. As summer dawns on us, it is not a bad idea to turn down the alcohol level. This is part of our 'Wine Stroke' prevention program. A nice chilled Bandol rose might not be unpleasant either. All you will miss are the crickets. 'Vinography' offered an excellent 'Bandol Rose' pick from Domaine Tempier back in 2004. Ah! Provence, le Midi...Un Pastis, s'il vous plait.
