    Nerd? I like to describe myself more as being a dork. Be it for wine, biking, reading, music, or fine dining.

    Be proud :P

    Thanks to each of you for assuring me I'm not alone! Nerds and Dorks Unite!

    mimi... the nerdy part is buying a wine JUST because there's a bicycle on the front. (But, it was also just kinda meant to be a joke...)

    Snap... gonna have to find the Cycles Gladiator now! LOL... when I polish off the RedBicyclette I'll save the bottle as a bud vase... can put cut roses in it! These would be fun gifts too! I know my friends would laugh and roll their eyes

    The wine was actually quite good! I had snapper, fresh veggies and a fresh steamed yam for dinner... the wine was perfect with it. I'll be buying it again... and not just for the label... LOL.
    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

    What a darling web site! I'll have to look for the wine next time I'm in a grocery store (hubby does most of the shopping as he's retired)...but I'm the wine drinker.

    Hey, somewhere I saw a thing that you can stick in the top of an empty wine bottle that turns it into a candelabra. That'd be a great use for the empty Red Bicyclette bottles!

    Nanci, the review you posted was for the Red Bicyclette, correct? Do you have one for the Cycles Gladiator? They have that at the grocery I go to. I have been tempted to buy it, but resisted for fear that I wouldn't like the wine. I guess I'm less of a dork (or just poorer ) than some, and don't want to spend $10 on a bottle because it has the Cycles Gladiator picture on it .

    I must say my nearly 3 yo grandson liked the red bicyclette website. He kept wanting me to go back "outside grandma" to watch the animation, and he really liked watching the dog chase the bike LOL.
    Don't think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your inner child playing with matches

    OK, count me in as a SUPER Dork...

    I had to stop at the grocery store on the way home yesterday, so I checked and found both wines! I bought the Red Bicyclette in the Chardonnay and the Cycles Gladiator in the Cabernet Savignon.

    The good news is that the Red Bicyclette Chardonnay is quite good. On the dry side...but still a bit fruity, with a strong flavor. I had it with chicken and bean chili and crusty bread and it held up well!

    The bad news is that now my husband thinks I'm crazy!
