Aspiring Badass

If you’re still panning on moving up the ladder here, kickin’ it with a bottle or two of Biker wines sounds like a good strategy. No we don’t mean that kind of bike, so take your fixie and head back over the bridge. I’ll write about hipster wines soon but this Zin is definitely not for you.

Four Vines Biker Zinfandel from Paso Robles is big and black with a splash of Mourvedre adding a bit of animal spice to all the rich fruit. It’s a perfect wine for the aspiring badass, though we do have slight concern about that tramp stamp down there!

I tend to agree with the "Just An Ass" wines, except that Che wasn't a dictator.

Snake and Scorpion rice wine! Don't drink too much of it even though you're a badass! Taste awful!

Hey Fellows, In the late sixties, college time, I use to take one of my girlsfriends out to a small water hole on the golf course, when the moon was full, with a bottle or two of Saumur Champagne and Practice my French. Now that was Bad Ass with Bad Ass wine according to the rumors in school.

Bad Ass??... My favorite red...100% Tannat. Hard to find in the U.S., from Uruguay (for example, 6to Sentido - 6th Sense) and also some quality examples offered from neighboring Argentina (Finca Las Moras). Luckly, I have access to it through wine stores in next door Mexico (SD-TJ area). Simply the darkest ink well expression of the fruit in a glass ever and head & shoulders above CabSav. Although the varietal name Tannat refers to its tannins, in mexican spanish, the word is very similar to "tanates", which is the equivalent of "cojones". How bad ass is that? Try it, you'll like it. Plus, it is the best wine to drink for "healthful" reasons.
