This wine is good in a way that sneaks up on you. I mean, I was drinking it and really liking it without thinking too much about it. Let's be honest--sometimes, drinking $10 wine is about compromise. It's about telling yourself, "Hey! This doesn't taste like total ass! It'll do for a Wednesday."
But this wine is sooo much better than simply "not ass." It's light and refreshing "with aromas of pineapple and peach." I didn't taste the pineapple and peach, really, but I did taste the that's-okay-I'll-do-the-dishes-so-you-leave-the-kitchen-and-let-me-drink-iness of it.
That's a huge compliment. I really hate doing the dishes.
So if it's been a rough day, and your kid wanted to wear his pajama top to school, or the plumbing in your house has gone wonky and you have to fill the toilet tank with the hand-held shower head, or your students think it's unfair for you to collect a project--one you assigned two weeks ago that they've worked on in class, for which you've given extensive support, directions, and examples--on the due date specified on the handouts, the board, and your website...if you've had a day like that, or an even better one, crack open a bottle of The Naked Grape.
Because we deserve so much better than "not ass."
