CECAA850 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 My friend owns a winery and specializes in fruit and berry wines. They came over last weekend and he brought maybe 8 bottles. It seems that every year one bottle stands out above the rest. This year it's his plum wine. Its absolutely exceptional. I got 4 bottles and opened one tonight. Its hard not to finish the bottle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only agreed on #3. Our 1s and 2s were swapped. I was shocked we both liked "W" the least....but still darn good. My winner Col. T, hers Old Fitz.

Closest I'll come to hitting the Lotto not the lotto; but that Colonel Taylor is a big score. That is my favorite bourbon thus far. Tonight, I'm enjoying a glass of red wine called Into the fog. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I scored a bottle of Blanton's two Christmas Eve's ago. Liquor store was packed and I was looking around. a worker comes up and asks if I needed help. Got the usual No to the Weller and the guy said he had a bottle of Blantons in the back, so I said "I'll take it." I enjoyed it. Really, the only thing I've had which I absolutely detest and will never buy again is Four Roses. Yuk! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
