Wine Reviews: Weekly Mini Round-Up For November 6, 2017

So, like, what’s this stuff, anyway?

I taste a bunch-o-wine (technical term for more than many people). So each week, I discuss some of my wine reviews (mostly from samples) and tasting notes with you via twitter (limited to 140 characters). They are intended to be reviews of wines, fun, and quirky. Below is a wrap-up of those twitter wine reviews in the past week (click here for the skinny on the best way to read them), along with links that will help you locate these wines, so that you can try them on your own. Cheers!
