Every year for Halloween, a bunch of us meet at a friends house for dinner while the kids roam the neighborhood Trick-or-Treating. There's typically five or six families, with many others wondering in and out as the night progresses. This Halloween was no exception and once again we found ourselves in the midst of witches, hippies, rappers, and everything else you can imagine. While the kids went door to door, the parents hang out, get some dinner, and get caught up recent going-on's.
Last night, my buddy opened up a bottle of 2003 Twin Fin Cabernet (Retail $10.99)for dinner, which consisted of everything from homemade chili to buffalo wings to stromboli - and the Twin Fin went wonderfully with everything. This wine definitely on the lighter side, but big enough to stand up to chili and wings. This Monterey County Cabernet is fruity and light - a great summertime red which is what you think of every time you see the surfboard sticking out of the convertible on the label. While some may not care for the twist-off cap (which we did debate a bit), all they need is a sip to convince them otherwise.
My buddy said he bought a case of Twin Fin at the beach a while back, but hasn't seen it around here. Well, I think its time to go searching.
