My wife and I aren’t wine drinkers simply because we haven’t really found a wine that we like the taste of…until now. I received the Madrona wine in the mail through a special offer and decided to try it. I figured, “Hey, even if I don’t like it, I have a cool bottle to display.” One sip and we were hooked, though. At first, it was a little dry. But once the initial taste was over, we continued to drink – first from the white wine and then from the red. We even had some friends over and they enjoyed it as well. “Where did you get this?” they asked.

Before I go any further, let me say that our wine experience is so limited that we couldn’t even figure out how to get the cork out of the bottle. I was afraid it was going to shoot a hole in the ceiling or something like that. But it didn’t.

The wine from the Gold Medal Wine Club also came with an informative newsletter. It has a breathtaking picture overlooking the Madrona Vineyards in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The inside was even better as it had charming stories about the family that created this delicious wine. The picture of the family just couldn’t be any more adorable. The eight page glossy newsletter was chock full of great information, all of it geared towards wine and the wine industry. Being an information sponge, I read it right away and just now read it again before writing this post.

Like I said, we’re not wine lovers. I would, however, recommend this wine to even the most picayune of wine drinkers. The family takes pride in their product and it absolutely shows. I think I might be checking out one of their wine clubs for a few friends as Christmas gifts this year as well.
