The Ten Spot – Mad Housewife Cabernet Sauvignon

The Ten Spot – Mad Housewife Cabernet Sauvignon $5.99Another new acquisition by my local grocer, four wines under the Mad Housewife label. I chose the Cabernet because, frankly, I can generally drink a Cab at room temperature and I was wanting a bottle of wine to drink immediately. Yep, that’s the kind of mood I was in that day. Plus, I always like to at least try one bottle of any new wine they get, just to say “thanks for getting something new, and please keep getting new things” to my friendly neighborhood grocer.
How was it? It was fine. It wasn’t exciting or unique in anyway. It was a standard Cabernet, fairly tannic, but easy to drink. Nothing special, but for $5.99 a bottle, I’ll probably buy it again when I need a bottle right away, or maybe just because I’m walking down that aisle at the store.....

Ty's Mom, thanks for the kind words on Mad Housewife. We would love to send you a Mad Housewife shirt. They are quite cute... no cure for boredom, but adorable nonetheless. Cheers, Damian (mad housewife manager)

I think I remember Pam at Sidewalk Shoes trying out this wine. Love the bottle and it sounds like you're going to be the recipient of a pretty cool tshirt!

Good to know! I love the name of the wine. I would totally judge this bottle by its label...and buy it.
