Life's better when you wine!!!

Who doesn't like a good glass of wine? Red or white, I don't discriminate. I like smooth, semi-sweet red wines and crisp, light, semi-fruity white wines. Ok, I'm not a wine connoisseur and I'm pretty sure those aren't the ways you describe wines, or maybe it is, but that's what I tell the waiter when I want them to recommend me a good wine. And usually they are right on point when they bring me that heaven in a glass. 

So recently I went to a really nice, low key Italian restaurant in Avon Lake, Ohio called Fratello's. Let me just say, the food is amazing, the staff is wonderful and the wine selection is ridiculous. Seriously, if your in the area go check them out you won't be disappointed. So one of the owners was super nice and was suggesting all types of wines for me, finally he said he had the perfect one. Dornfelder.

 I had never heard of it before but it was so delicious!! It was not too sweet, not too bitter, not too harsh, just a perfect glass of red wine. I had been searching all over looking for a bottle of this German wine and hadn't found it, until Valentine's Day. My husband took me to a cute little eclectic college town and we finally found a bottle in this tiny candy store/mini market of all places. I brought it home and opened it that night and was not disappointed. Yum... 
I'm always on the look out for new wines, if you have one you really love tell me about it. I'd love to try it. Thanks!!
