When I was asked to review wine I could not pass on the opportunity. I mean, who would? I have always loved sweet wines but never tried many different kinds. I will be getting two shipments from www.cawineclub.com as part of their Premier Club. One I received for this month and I will receive another two-bottle shipment in a few weeks. The Premier Club features two bottles of award-winning wine from California’s best “mom & pop” wineries.
When my shipment of wine arrived I was surprised at how well they were packaged. The two bottles of wine came in a specially designed styrofoam container with two slots, one for each bottle. In the box was a magazine and description of the wines I would be tasting. It is so wonderful to bring the wine tasting directly to your home. No driving required! In my case it’s always best not to drive after a wine tasting! haha!
The wine I received were Sauvignon Blanc and Tempranillo both made by the Robledo Family Winery. I enjoy my wines chilled even though I know it is suggested that white wines taste best if they’re not too cold. Oh well!
I enjoyed the Tempranillo white wine with a delicious grilled steak. It had a gorgeous bright ruby color with aromas of cranberry, blackberry, cinnamon, spice and toasted oak. The flavors of dried black fruit, toasted cedar and tobacco in the wine are to produce a long, rich finish. It was delicious but was a little bitter tasting for my taste buds.
The Sauvignon Blanc has a crisp lingering finish. Although it says it is best with curried chicken, I tried mine with steak. I loved the taste of this wine. It was delicious even chilled! Grab this wine while you can because only 520 cases were made!

i would love to be part of a wine club and get something new every month. this would be a perfect gift for my dad.
i used to belong to this club but moved to vt and you cant ship alcohol to vt 🙁
oooo a wine club that would be nice to try new wines every month
I love the idea of getting different types of wine in the mail! I also prefer my wine to be cold.
What a fantastic idea… we collect wines wherever we go…but to have an assortment come to us, especially in the winter when we don’t travel much at all, would be pretty incredible 🙂
Love the concept and would like to try it sometime!
Ah, so jealous! I love wine, so reviewing it would be an awesome thing to be picked out to do. This definitely would be nice to test out and the club sounds awesome. Thank you for the review, now I have a club to check out!
