Summary

Tax Day in the US has come and gone. Many of us are getting a refund, so if you have a little extra change, here are some great wines to consider.

A few on the list are...

Burgundy in red and white: Pinot and Chard
Pomerol in Bordeaux
Syrah from The Rocks District of Milton-Freewater in Walla Walla Washington
Old Vine Zinfandel from Sonoma, Napa, and Amador County
Châteauneuf-du-Pape BLANC

I offer descriptions and explanations of each wine in the show. I hope you enjoy and find a way to spend your tax money!
