This song made my teenage heart go pitter patter every time I listened to it (which was A LOT). It was originally recorded by Tommy James and the Shondells, but Joan Jett did a version of it that I love also.
So in an effort to recapture my long lost youth, when I saw this little number in the wine store I picked it up. I typically love anything Concannon makes and this was no exception. It’s a nice jammy easy drinking red. I wasn’t too excited about my first glass, but after it sat a little while on the counter it opened up and tasted like an entirely different wine. So I’d suggest you open it and let it sit a while before you drink it – if you can (it’s always difficult for me to let a wine sit…)
Ahhhh, now I don’t hardly know her
But I think I could love her
Crimson and Clover
Ah when she comes walking over
Now I’ve been waitin’ to show her
da da da da da da
Crimson and clover over and over
sigh…..

I might be around the same age as you. I remember that song too! I’m normally not a wine drinker, but that name has me tempted.
Birgit says
I immediately had that song in my head — thank you. Hah! 😉

You really know your readers. Wait for the wine? I’ll try. But the song brings back lots of memories.
Sue Anderson says
That oldie but goodie is a favorite from my past, too. And it makes a good name for the wine!

Tommy James and the Shondells came to mind when I read your title! I’ll have to check out the wine.

I’ve not heard Joan Jett’s rendition. Will have to look it up on youtube. 🙂

funny how when you see or hear things, they remind you of your youth. Didn’t know that about wine, letting it sit. I’m not a big drinker… {:-D
Cris says
I`m not really a wine drinker, but the song really got stuck in my mind now 🙂
Anne says
Oh my goodness! This song is already in my head! LOL! I will definitely try the wine. I had “Early Morning Rain” stuck in my head last week! LOL! Time for a little change! Thanks and enjoy your weekend.

LOL! Now I’m humming a certain song!
good vineyard, good area of the world.
Oh! I just thought of this–My Winter Wine Weekend theme this year is songs. I will have to give this wine a try!
Jenny Matlock says
I have that on my pool playlist, actually!
It’s such a funny song!
My husband would be thrilled if I’d get this wine for him to help drown out the volume I listen to my music while I swim!
Thanks for a clever link for the letter C.
