David, an old friend and super wine rep. brought some wines from the Chilian winery Cono Sur. While I'm not easily impressed, I was "blown away" by them. We started with the entry level Bicycle series Chardonnay and Pinot noir. For wines that retail under $10.00 all I can say is "WOW". David...being the good guy that he is, let me take the rest of the wine home. I whipped up some Creamy Grilled Seafood & Pasta Salad for dinner with the wines and thought I died and went to heaven. So stop by and pick up some of these "hidden gems". And if you ask nicely...I just might share my recipe with you or at least give you other food pairings that will work. Hope to you soon.

BTW... also tried the top of the line 20 Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon. It is now my new Special Occasion wine
