A Good Box of Wine Is…
...a box of good wine. Well, actually, it's a case of decent bottles of wine for a great price.
I am presently eating brie and crackers and enjoying Casa Julia 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve.
Mr. Matt Kassoff picked me up from the airport earlier this week with a special surprise in the trunk. Matt previously worked for a Seattle wine distributor and is still able to order bottles from a friend there at wholesale prices. I picked out eleven bottles, two of which were sold out, and was delighted to have them waiting upon my return from Los Angeles. I will not cite the exact price for the lot but let me say it was... competitive.
I received the following:
- Dolcetto Diano D'Alba 2005
- Rolondo Langhe Bianco 2005
- Rigal 2002 Malbec-Merlot
- Hahn Estates 2006 Meritage Red
- Huntington 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon
- Claar 2004 Late Harvest Riesling
- Cycles Gladiator 2005 Merlot
- Foxy 2004 California Red
- Casa Julia 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve
I am very, very extremely excited to work through these bottles. Oh, how I love wine.
Also, I am updating my wine page to reflect these new additions, as well as recent bottles.

Matt Kassoff is a good man and I will accept no differing opinion.
