Kappy's Grand Wine Tasting

Today, I attended Kappy's Grand Wine Tasting. They featured over 125 wines, many under $20. They also had a 20% discount off of any 12 or more bottles of wine.

I only tasted a fraction of the wines and here are my favorites of the wines that I tasted. There were probably other good wines there, but I could not taste everything.

2005 Joseph Drouhin Latoret Pinot Noir ($13)
2004 Castello di Monastero Rosso di Montalcino ($24)
2006 Marquis Goosebumps Sparkling Shiraz ($50)
2003 Stag's Leap Petite Sirah ($35)
2005 Vietti Barbera d' Asti ($24)
2005 Trapiche Broquel Malbec ($16)
2001 Marques de Caceres Reserva ($20)
2004 Rombauer Zinfandel ($30)
2004 Vivalda Massimiliano Barbera D'Asti ($16)
2004 Terre Rubre Cesanese/Sangiovese ($15)
2001 Gran Fuedo Reserva, Navarra ($17)
2005 Viticcio Chianti Classico ($19)

Faretti Biscotti Liquer ($25)-Same flavor as a Biscotti cookie

The Oriel wines also made a fine showing, including these:
