Friday Favorites

Here are some products I'm currently liking for some weekend fun inspiration.

Save Me San Francisco Bulletproof Picasso Sauvignon Blanc

One of my current favorites for a Sauvignon Blanc under $10. A bright, colorful label and a twist off top make this wine perfect for spring. A blend of citrus notes highlight this fruit-forward style Sauvigon Blanc. It is fermented in 100% stainless steel, which gives the wine a clean and crisp finish.   

Robert Mondavi Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 

If you are looking for a nice gift for a Cabernet drinker and do not want to spend over $30, this Mondavi Napa is perfect. Big, bold, rich and smooth. Dark fruit berries and herbal notes are blended in the glass. Leather, a touch of vanilla and a subtle oak presence on the finish. The addition of 6% Cabernet Franc, 4% Merlot, %1 Petit Verdot and 1% Malbec to the Cabernet grapes to give the wine a soft, Bordeaux style blend.    

Ballast Point Sculpin Grapefruit 

Ballast Point Grapefruit Sculpin is hands down my favorite beer of the moment and possibly through out the whole summer! It is the perfect marriage of an IPA and grapefruit juice. Stay tuned for a whole post reviewing this limited time seasonal. 

Jack Daniels Fire 

The latest player to the cinnamon whiskey game: Jack Daniels Fire. The original contender, Fireball, is really the only shot I will order while at a bar. However, Jack's version may have me rethinking my order. The first main difference between the products is that you know what type of whiskey is used with Fire. The whiskey base is more of a mystery with Fireball. Second, I find Jack Fire does not have the syrupy aftertaste that I associate with Fireball. 

Have a great weekend!
