Hello Friends and Wine Lovers!

The year end is rapidly closing in on us while we’re busy being distracted by shopping, company parties, and the new and final movie of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy: Return of the King, for which we’ve been paying some guy $10 an hour to wait in line for tickets for us. Okay that’s not entirely true. But we are more excited about this sequal than we were for Return of the Jedi, or Batman Returns. Yes, precious, we are. Certainly, we thinks it more exciting than the Return to the Blue Lagoon with as much action as Return of the Living Dead or Bruce Lee’s Return of the Dragon, but unfortunately without Bridget Fonda, like Point of No Return. And this week, while we wait for our writing inspirations to returns to us (we wants it back, precious!), we have “Return of the Spanish Reds for Mostly Under $10.”

Return to us, Carpe Vinum, this week for stellar flights of these way tasty reds, for it will be the last red wine tasting for 2003. (Next week is celebratory sparklers!)

So Friday, December the 12th, between 4:30 and 9:00 PM it’s:

Return of the Spanish Reds for Mostly Under $10!
