http://winexpression.blogspot.com [Wine Expression] WBW # 16 All about the label: There was a chilien wine that caught my eye, which I don't have a picture or name of, which showed off a big Chile pepper on the side. Big, bold, colorful, and in your face, that's the way it's done.

What's key about this is that you can tell that a lot of thought and care went into the making of this wine.

Lennthompson.typepad.com[Lennthompson.typepad.com] LENNDEVOURS: Proposal for a Wine Blogging Day: It must come from a New World wine nation that isn't the U.S., which leaves you places such as Australia, Argentina, New Zealand and Chile. Once you drink the wine (hopefully with friends!() you should post a picture of the bottle/label and write a little blurb with your impressions of the wine, what food you either did or would pair with it and, if possible, post an "official" tasting note for the wine.

[Lovesicily.com] Via Ritiro N.7 diary » Blog Archive » WBW #8 - Vini Siciliani Rossi: To mark this exciting occasion for us we decided to combine it with a visit to one of the wineries that is at the forefront of the Sicilian wine rebirth.
