An archeological expedition in southern Armenia has recently uncovered the oldest known wine-making tools. The artifacts which include a wine press are 6,000 years old and were used to make a red wine.
It appears that the wine was made to be drunk as a part of mourning ritual.
There is no truth to the rumor that scrolls found near the wine press contained mixed numerical ratings and reviews of the wine that was produced.
So, here we are, 6,000 years later and wine is still a vital part of our daily lives.
We will categorize our wine recommendations into weekday, weekend and special occasion wines with an occasional foray in to cellar selections.
Weekday wines will be those wines that are meant to be drunk with your weeknight / work night meal and cost $7 to $15 per bottle. These wines are thought of as cost effective, enjoyable, complimentary wines to your weeknight meal.
Weekend wines are those wines that you enjoy during your more complex dinner menu enjoyed with friends over a time casual period. These wines will cost in the $12 to $25 per bottle price range and can be “noticed” and “commented upon” during your meal.
Special occasion wines are those reserved for holiday meals, birthday dinners, anniversaries, and so on. Our price range for these selections can extend up to $75 per bottle.
Cellar selections are those wines which may not be quite ready to enjoy upon release and can be called upon to be special occasion wines in the future.
