Chinese New Year’s Eve...I felt compelled to fish up a bottle of Mou Tai for the occasion, but then I remember dipping into Mou Tai is comparable to drinking a bottle of hand sanitizer except it tastes worse. Quite the conundrum was setting in until I discovered a bottle of red with a cattle grazing square on the label...and guess what? It’s the Year of Beef. Boom. Purchase made, Malbec cracked and Ox wine consumed. Normally I give this one a solid 7.5, but since it is the Lunar Niu (Mandarin for Cow) Year’s Eve I bumped the rating up 0.8 because the number 8 is lucky in the Middle Kingdom. Gan Bei!
