Party on Garth
Matthiasson Wines "TENDU"
Varietal: Red Blend
Region: California
Year: 2014
Price: ~$24
Last week I had a party. The bottles were popping and the wine flowing. When my old wheelchair came out from the garage and a impromptu wheelie contest broke out, I knew it was time for the party wine.
A party wine is something you serve when you've been over-served. Light and easy to drink it usually has mass appeal. For awhile I was pouring a smooth Malbec that was cheap as shit, but tasted great. Then I found Matthiasson's TENDU Red Blend.
TENDU is the perfect party wine thanks to size, taste and the fact you can pry its cap off with your teeth. At a full liter in size it gives you an extra glass, or two, and can go the distance. Light, zippy and hella refreshing it goes down way too easy.
