    A wine thread

    http://www.desmorosso.com/en/index.php

    $US75 a bottle.

    I'm betting there's a couple Martinborough vineyards that could top this stuff without raising a sweat or emptying your wallet.

    I'm certain there's Hunter Valley vineyards who would annihilate it with their budget supermarket lines.

    Wonder when we'll get a HD logoed Budweiser?
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Yet another bloody gimmick to sell wine...as a retailer of the stuff I say let the wine speak for itself. Nearly every gimmicky-sell wine I have come across is gimmicky for a reason - they can't sell it any other way...

    It's memento. They aren't purchased with consumption in mind.

    Most of them would be corked 5 years before they are opened and by that stage of proceedings in the night it doesn't matter.

    When it comes to wine, (and a lot of other things) price is not a good indication of quality.

    Which is good, 'cause I is very very poor.

    That was my point really. My favourite Cab Sav Merlot is less than $15. My favourite Cru is $250 a bottle. Don't drink that very often

    What about the Kim Crawford Pinot Chocolate?? Anyone tried it?? Sounds just like the drink for us girls!!
    Me, I am not any vineyards lady - I drink whatever label I fancy for the night and try not to spend more than $25 (rarely) for a good quaff. Red or white, pink or creamy. Bubbles are just for special occasions - of course!!
