Little Black Dress Wine

Little Black Dress Wine and a Good Time.
Okay girl, it’s Saturday night, date night and time to reach for the little black dress.
Instead of heading to the closet, you head to the fridge. Yes that’s right, the fridge. I’m now holding a cold bottle of Pinot Grigio in one hand and in the other a corkscrew and a large goblet.
If you haven’t guessed by now, Little Black Dress Wine is a very cleverly named wine.
I’m still trying to figure out who makes it. To refresh your memory, about a week ago I got a phone call from my friend Brandy, in which I described her as “almost” frenetic. Just an FYI, I only did that so I could use the word frenetic. Sorry Brandy, I just could not resist. Anyhoo-
She was not sure about this wine as it was the first time she had seen it. So she called me as I am a self proclaimed expert on food and drink. Especially drink. I love to taste and experiment.

We ( My husbands brothers and wives) celebrate often. You name it we celebrate it. In fact the last “celebration” we had at our house, was because we had chopped down a tree early in January and It was finally ready to burn in April. So we had a bonfire party. This was held the week before my sister in laws annual Easter Beer Hunt Party.I drive one of my sister in laws nuts, cause she likes to have everyone’s favorite drink on hand whenever we socialize. What frustrates her is that she never knows what I’ll be drinking. Sorry Tish, I love experimenting and I drink with my mood.

I digress. Back to Little Black Dress Wine. When I got home from the liquor store, I put LBD in the freezer. It got a really good chill on it by the time I got around to tasting it.
I poured a little in my wine glass, swirled it, tasted it. Wow, I thought that it was good. It was not real tart and it is definitely not a sweet wine. You can taste a hint of fruit. It’s crisp. This is a very good wine especially for the price. This is a womens wine. It is a perfect gift, because of it’s catchy name. This is the kind of wine that a guy should give a gal.This a classy wine that makes you feel sophisticated.Little Black Dress wine is ideal for sipping on the patio,indulging in a tub or to grab a bottle for girls night out.
If you know how to pair wines with food, this is a perfect pairing wine.

Back to Brandy. She did not care for LBD. She thought that it was bad. Well I like Pinot Grigio, I like drinking it and I especially like saying the name. She likes Zinfandel. I'm getting bored with Zin. She and I have kind of the same tastes as far as drinks go. So I decided to test a theory that I had.
After my initial taste that I thought was real good, I let my wine set for about 20 minutes. Until It barely had a chill to it. Then I took a drink and HAAAA! It tasted Baaad! In my opinion of course.
I have come to the conclusion that this wine has to be served cold . I believe that perhaps it should even be decanted for optimal taste. This a very good wine when served chilled and allowed to breathe.

I read some reviews from the Little Black Dress Wine website and one wine critic said pretty much the same thing that I did.Tonight before I wrote this review.I decided to test my theory again.I pulled the re corked bottle from where I stuck it in the coldest part of my fridge, poured a little in my large glass. It was excellent!Chilled is best.
I will see if I can share a glass soon with Brandy and update you on the results. Goodnight and Cheers to you!

P.S
Little Black Dress Wine comes in other varieties if Pinot Grigio is not for you. They make a Pinot Noir, Merlot, Chardonnay, and a Cabarnet. Look for more on these other fine labels.
