Chateau Neverfail

[hotwine]

I have the Cline Syrah and Dom. des Amouriers VdP de Vaucluse in the category of "go to" house reds; and for a similar white, currently Picpoul. But I try to match the wine to the menu, regardless of how casual, and don't mind pulling a $20 Barbera to accompany a $2 frozen pizza. Call it an extravagance in lieu other forms of entertainment, such as frequent dining out or movie attendance (haven't been inside a movie theater in over 20 years, but we usually go out for a nice dinner every couple of months).
