Wine in a box...

I get bored with wine snobs who sneer at wine in a box. A bag like that is actually the perfect vessel for wine because it doesn't let air in every time you pour a glass.
Now the brands of wine that come in the box...yeah. But if you can get something besides Riuniti in a box, why wouldn't you?

You do know that when the box seems to run out that you can open it and squeeze another glass or 2 out of the bag? My sister taught me this trick
oooh! No I didnt know that! Thanks for the tip!! I'll be sure to get at it!=)
We should do a wine tasting. To me it all tastes like nail polish remover, even though I'm trying to acquire a palate for it. I'd be interested if winos like Jazz and Dye could tell the difference between the cheap crap and the good stuff in a blind taste test.

I was the same way, but I started off with Sangria and kind of lulled my palate into trying different kinds. Now reds are my favorite, Im exploring whites though. I agree with you that would be awesome to have a wine tasting I know there is a vineyard in Calvert Co. Running Hare Vineyard! Ive been wanting to go there and see what they have!

My brother does that all the time. He gets a group of people together and they all bring a wrapped bottle so no one knows what is what. You'd be surprised what inexpensive wines are actually rated very well. He said they even threw in a bottle of Old Fart and it got good reviews!

We went to a tasting there and their wines were really good.
St. Michael's Vineyard has a chocolate Zin that I thought tasted like puke backwash, but Dye liked it really well and another friend of mine loves it.

I totally agree with that, and Viralblonde who said she was sick of bottle snobs, sometimes cheap stuff can be much better tasting and hell the money I saved makes it that much sweeter!! But it reminds me of those Pizza Hut commercials where they set it up to be a fancy restaurant and everyone is commenting on it then Pizza Hut comes in :::hehe::: but people look dissapointed if its good.. its GOOD I say! Im down for a tasting!
