Day 193-Joseph Handler Sweet Red 2008 Rheinhessen for $4.99 at Trader Joe's
This red wine was a great deal at Trader Joes for those who like a touch of sweetness with their red wine. This wine is made with the Dornfelder grape used a lot in Germany and has a lot of flavors of plum and cherry. This wine is best served cold and is good on its own or paired with something with a spicier feel such as pizza or a spicy pasta sauce. Next to the moscatelle, this wine is the best wine for the price that we bought when we got a case of wine at Trader Joe's. This wine is very mellow with no tannic dry aftertaste. I would definitely think this wine would be crowd pleaser for the non-hard core red wine drinkers, and for the people who like an off-dry wine. I would definitely buy this again at this price, and maybe buy the case for backyard barbeque.

A very good starter red for people whom are looking for a red with a slightly sweet Plum, Berry and hint of Brown Sugar taste. Very pleasing in the aftertaste. I serve it with pasta and sausage with my homemade spicy thick pasta sauce. Also good with steak chili.

ReplyDeleteI prefer white wine but since red wine is healthier, I was delighted to come across Joseph Handler's Sweet Red in Santa Rosa, CA. It is wonderful with the pasta sauce I make from fresh tomatoes and garlic.
ReplyDeleteMy first time buying a Sweet Red and I'm going back to stock up. Great taste, even better price!
ReplyDeleteWhere else can I find this besides TJ's?? they never seem to have any when I run out of my own stock....
ReplyDeleteI really like this wine. My Husband and I buy it by the case from Trader Joe's. I prefer to drink it at room temperature rather than chilled. I think it has a better flavor plus I am really not a fan of red wine that is chilled.
ReplyDeleteI'M ADDICTED BECAUSE IT'S SOOOO GOOOOOOD!

A fascinating discussion is worth comment. There's no doubt that that you ought to write more about this topic, it might not be a taboo subject but usually folks don't discuss these subjects.
ReplyDeleteTo the next! All the best!!
