Tom, we were actually in your neck of the woods today at the Potomac Point Winery, mother in-laws birthday. It was drizzly but we enjoyed their wine. Later I cooked dinner at home and opened this bottle of Tati red from your favorite Piemonte region. It was less than $10 at Wholefoods....try this! Cheers!!

Beerman,

We were in Yorktown this weekend babysitting grandchildren. Our oldest and his lovely wife celebrated the big #5. The only thing better than travel is being with grandchildren! Although, I can honestly say by the end of the weekend my years were showing with an active 4 year old boy and 6 month old princess who does not like to sleep longer than 30 minutes. Sunday’s drive home was blur.

Barbera is a favorite in our house. Always serve with food! Barbera is not Chianti – It is better! (of course IMHO)

You must be complimented on two things: 1) You found a Barbera less than $10 and 2) You found something at Whole Foods for less than $10. Both are amazing feats!

Remember – It is always cheaper by the case.

BTW - did you stick with Photobucket?

Ooops...vino faux pas! Funny, I always looked at the wine lists, but eventually just ordered "the house red". Each regions local reds were very good and on average 3 euros a glass was incredible!

Photobucket account is good for another year or so, then poof they're gone.
