If you like an oaked Chardonnay, this wine is for you. I bought 2009 Line 39 Chardonnay at the last BevMo 5 cent sale for about $8 a bottle.  The La Jolla store only had 6 bottles left so I took them all just based on the online description.

I‘m a little bit perplexed because I thought the BevMo 5 cent sale ended on Monday but online, it seems to still be going. I happen to be on a Shiraz kick lately.  This bottle is worth checking out especially if you locate it at your BevMo and it’s still on sale.  It’s regular price is $11.99 so during the 5 cent sale when you get the second bottle for 5 cents, that’s a whopping [...]
