No Whining Wine

[jimjimbo]

I'm sure that in the past here that there have been many, many, many wine discussions, and even currently, brief photos and comments in the RTM thread, and that's awesome.  But was wondering if some of you goofballs might enjoy a more focused thread?

No whining.

The only whine that should be discussed in a focused thread is that exotic sound expelled from a supercharger.

The design of the conventional wine bottle hasn't changed much... although some prefer a cork, it appears… nevertheless... I like beer

You have never driven a normally aspirated Alfa, I am guessing. 

[windashine]

are we discussing screw cap's or vented polymer bags in a cardboard container ?

As a Klipsch fan, efficiency is the model.  Finding efficiently priced wine that excels above the price is the goal.  Back in the early 90's a red from france with the La Vielle Ferme label was under $40 a case.  That was nice.  There was also a US west coast wine, which at the moment I can't recall, that was a fantastic bargain.  It didn't take long for these to be discovered and demand drove prices up.  True friends on the forum would reveal any current finds because the price will be going up soon anyway.  Anyone?

Container type is irrelevant.

Sure haven't. Is an E46 manual M3 with a full exhaust a good enough substitute?  The sound was intoxicating.   Who needs a stereo in a car like that? 

[jimjimbo]

I guess I shouldn't be surprised that this went from my little, iddy biddy inquiry, that it would go from that to Alfa's, superchargers and anything other than the original intent.

 

Perfect.

It's a good drive, but it is not the same.  I like both.

Naturally.

We were discussing whine as the posting stated.   There are those of us that know nothing of the bottled sort. I'll put a cork in it.

OK then.  I'm going to officially edit and name this thread.....No Whining Wine.  I think that's somewhat coherent at this point.

How about homemade muscadine wine in a jelly jar?  

[windashine]

edit:  but I will never build a wine cellar...

What part of the quoted post do you not understand?

You should.  They are handy for a lot of things.

What I got today works here too....I didn't want to do this, but...

 

8 Magnums of this Parker rated 95.....They knew not what they had......at an insanely low price.....plus a discount for 6 bottles or more...I should have worn a mask out of that place.  The manager told me that hadn't sold but one in the last 2 years.  And, their inventory says they might have another six....he has my number.
