Brickmason 2016 Red Blend Tasting and Review


This week I open, taste and review that Brickmason 2016 red blend that I purchased about a month ago from Sunset & Vine in Blowing Rock, NC. I also talk about the new promo video, receipts offering cash prizes for surveys, a Mother’s Day ripoff, our new Drink With Rick buttons created by ButtonGnome, and our new podcast called – wait for it – Drink With Rick.

Frico Rosso 2016 by Scarpetta Tasting and Review


This week I open, taste and review the Frico Rosso 2016 Sangiovese blend by Scarpetta Wine. Is it any good? Join me and find out! I also try out and review my new Vinetto wine Aerator, tell you how to avoid wine headaches, pass on a tip on aerating wine given to me by Charlotte from Charlotte, and talk about how a good wine, like the Apollo 11 moon landing, can bring people together.
