The Wine Bum is dedicated to WINE!

This site has been a culmination of years of thought and ideas passed back ad forth between friends and lovers’ of wine. TheWineBum.com is the product of those discussions. We want to bring to the world a forum in the form of a Wine Blog where anyone and everyone can post and read about wine. We offer easy-to-use forms where bloggers can post wine reviews, rate wine tastings, rate wine clubs, and blog about anything and everything that has to do with wine.

The Wine Bum invites all of its readers to view what our contributors have written about the last bottle of Red Wine or White Wine that they drank. You can view all of our reader contributed wine reviews including Sparkling Wines and Dessert Wines too. Be sure to read what our contributors are saying about the Wine Tastings they’ve attended and any Wine Clubs they belong to. For more general discussions on wine visit the Wine Blog.

Year: 2006 Label: Kelly Fleming Region: Napa Valley Price Paid: $75 to $100 Rating: 8/10 We just enjoyed a great meal at Paul Martin’s Bistro. A nice bottle of Kelly Fleming Cabernet accompanied the Salmon, Artichoke and Chicken Skewers quite nicely. Dark fruit flavor that begins with a little spice at the tounge, only to end with a smooth and lush finish. VN:F...

The subtle music in the background...

Tasty Pinotage from Stellenbosch

0
Year: 2004 Label: zonnebloem Region: Stellenbosch Price Paid: $10 to $20 Rating: 3 The Pinotage is a cross between the Pinot Noir grape and the Cinsuat grape (Cinsaut is known as Hermitage in South Africa, hence the portmanteau name of Pinotage).
