I checked and Costco, my usual source, doesn't carry that kind. A proper wine store has it but for around twice that of the usual stuff. Still, I might give it a shot just for the sake of variety.Kory wrote: ↑17 May 2019, 7:11pmI'll be curious to know, keep me in the loop.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 May 2019, 7:06pmNever made that (nor had it, to my knowledge).

Again, I gotta disagree here but only with regard to a sauv blanc from new zealand (don’t bother with other producer countries).Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 May 2019, 9:38pmGotta be red.

Re: North America IMCT Meet Up
I agree with this post. I like sangria, so my taste is garbage.
Got a Rake? Sure!

Nuthin' wrong with sangria, tho I can't imagine ever having it indoors. Total summer deck beverage.

Re: North America IMCT Meet Up
Malbec with steak is about all I do. Red wine in abundance gives me a terrible hang over. I like white wines that aren’t sweet and are mineraly.
Re: North America IMCT Meet Up
It's better than Aus chardonnay for sure, but I don't like that varietal as a rule.101Walterton wrote: ↑18 May 2019, 10:43pmNah not for me, New Zealand Chardonnay now you are talking.
