The Sassy Lawyer & Pinoy Cook on food, family and home.
We passed by the supermarket to buy rice and I saw rows and rows of pinot noir on sale. Strictly speaking, this bottle contains pinot noir but is not pure pinot noir. Meaning? Juices of different berries were added to pinot noir to create a light and sweet wine. Delicious, really (had it while watching CSI: NY) , although purists might frown at the mixture. But then again, who cares about purists?

In 2003, a time when I hadn't heard of the term "blog", I started a recipe website at cooking.houseonahill.net using a now defunct content management system that ran on ASP. Ok, never mind the geek talk, I'm sure you're not interested in that. The contents easily multiplied and, in 2004, I moved the food site to pinoycook.net. Always unhappy with the fact that the dot com versions of houseonahill and pinoycook weren't … (click here to read all »)

that’s much better than other juices – it has some resveratrol from the red wine, pinot noir.
you should try our new improved Genesis Xtranol-24, with standardized resveratrol and other nutrients equivalent to 32 bottles of red wine, 32 pomegranates and 14 healing herbs.
Ma’am Connie, can you quote the price of this pinot noir per bottle? Just curious lang po and is it available in SM Supermarkets?
Thanks!
P189 only. Bought it in Shopwise; am not sure if SM sells this brand.
Familiar tong Arbor Mist… I think ito yung brand na binibili ko para sa Tatay ko, mura nga lang. Tama ka para syang sangria. And again tama ka, who cares about purists?
Aaaay the purists, you don’t know how much they hate me hahahaha I just delete their freaky comment in my food blog.
