What’s my name?!

18 Nov

DANG! I squealed when I opened the box holding this. It’s a classy personalized label and I’m a classy broad. Clifford=total class I tell you.

No, I did not get into the wine-making bizzzz. Not yet. But the kindly Gallo people sent me a personalized bottle. This is a dang good gift, methinks. They sent me the Cabernet Sauvignon but you can also personalize Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc at this site. Pretty inexpensive too–less than twenty! Well shipping will cost a touch more but I digress.

I haven’t opened it yet but when I do I will pour it into my brand-spanking new Riedel glass designed in conjuncture with Louis M Martini Winery to specifically to serve up Cabernet. I’ve always maintained that everything tastes better out of my Zalto Burgundy glasses but I’m willing to open my mind. So hot dang yes this post is extolling the virtues of products sent to me for free but I’ve pleasant past experience with Riedel stemware and really I just love this dark label with my name on it. I haven’t opened it yet. I have opened the Louis M Martini wine that was supposed to go with the glass and I can solidly say they make a yummy wine. And now, a fine wine glass too.

Someday I’m thinking I’ll make my own wine and possibly would use my middle name but for now Clifford looks good to me!
