Personally, I’ll stick to the red ones.ĭay 21: Barcelos 2018 Red Blend-The bottle design was better than the wine itself.ĭay 22: Flutter 2019 Chardonnay-This was very much what you would expect from a Chardonnay, therefore, down the sink it went.ĭay 23: Château Cap de Biolet 2019 Bordeaux-Ah, the only type of Bordeaux that matters. It was a less sweet, a little dryer and spicy.ĭay 20: Maison Savas 2019 Bordeaux White Blend-I don’t know about you, but I didn’t know white Bordeaux’s existed! I guess you learn something new every day. I think the apple/pear combination in white wine is too sweet for my preference.ĭay 18: Pollo Pazzo 2019 Red Blend-Easy to drink but nothing that stood out or was memorable.ĭay 19: Six String 2019 Red Blend-I enjoyed this red blend most out of the final four blends. I think the color of the wine indicates the fruitiness well.ĭay 16: Moulinet 2019 Red Blend-Easy to drink, nothing to write home about.ĭay 17: Cara A Cara 2019 Fernao Pires White Blend-I like blends but not this one. You won’t get me twice on a white!ĭay 15: LTD 2019 Rosè Blend-Not my favorite rosè, a little sweeter than I like.
However, I wouldn’t drink the whole thing. I really enjoyed it.ĭay 14: Baciato Dal Sol 2019 Trebbiano-Fruity notes but not overly sweet. I would describe the taste as bad apple juice with hints of sour grape.ĭay 13: The Conductor 2019 Merlot-Fuller bodied, delicious and there was a lingering dryness.
You could smell the tannins when you uncorked the bottle.ĭay 3: Ciel Bleu D’Aquitaine 2019 Sauvignon Blanc-As anticipated, it was too sweet for my liking. It was a light red and on the sweeter side. It was medium bodied and luckily not fruity at all.ĭay 2: Nightfall 2018 Zinfandel-I forget that red Zinfadel’s exist because I try and block out Zinfadel’s entirely. I will apologize to white wine enthusiasts now.ĭay 1: Vieux Diseaux 2019 Merlot-I enjoyed this one. The less sweetness I can taste, the better.
#WINE ADVENT CALENDAR 2021 COSTCO FULL#
So, is it worth it? That’s what you’re here to find out, right? I should preface this with: My preference is red wine-I like them full bodied, bold and I like them dry. Spoiler alert, I bought it before she responded “yes.” (Don’t worry, realization set in that a full bottle of wine a day is a bit… shall we say, ambitious?) Regardless, I sent a text to my best friend and asked if she wanted one. Admittedly, I was a little disappointed that it was half a bottle, and not a full bottle as I believed it to be. I had heard rumors about the existence of such a thing but had never seen it in person to believe it. The calendar retails for $99.99 and contains 24 (half) wine bottles that are 375 milliliters each, or about 12 ounces. We did our yearly Costco run to replenish the basic necessities back in September and I stumbled upon this beauty: The Wine Advent Calendar. It’s just my partner and I (and our three dogs) so we rarely go to Costco because we don’t usually need to buy anything in bulk, but then you add in the crowds and it’s pretty much a done deal for me.
