WBW17 Announced: Red Kiwis

I have been drowning in holiday shopping and cooking and spirit, but the Corkdork just reminded me that yes, Virginia, there is a Wine Blogging Wednesday 17, and he is hosting it!

This time the idea is to think outside Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc a little bit and try a New Zealand red wine. There is a lot going on in NZ apart from Sauvignon Blanc, and there are a lot of good regions for growing other grapes (Pinot Noir from Otago is what comes to mind for me, but there is some handy info on the New Zealand Wine page, too).
