You and woflowz are a perfect match.
You do wine Wednesday on Tuesday He does tequila Tuesday on Wednesday. You're both goons that need to be reeducated on your days of the week

If you live in a state where costco sells wine, their Malbec is really good and like $7. Bogle Essential Red is also very good for like $9. And Korbel is the best cheap bubbly

that Costco Malbec is so good for no reason, it’s better than a lot of the more expensive Malbecs I’ve tried

Now that it IS Wednesday, I do enjoy a cabernet Sauvignon or Sauvignon blanc every now a then. Wine gives me terrible hangovers so just a glass here and there.

Goes so damn well with a steak. I'm quickly going from a beer guy to a wine guy as of the past month.

I like some white stuff from Costco. In fondu. Not old enough to drink and honestly have no interest. Like it to season stuff and give flavour.

If you are a Pinot lover, you should try a Central Otago Pinot Noir. If you can get a 2020 - 2021 Peregrine Pinot Noir, you can't go wrong. I work in the New Zealand Wine Industry, so I have a lot of knowledge.

just got back from Abruzzo the other day so basically wines of Abruzzo are my favorite for now. so many amazing wines over there in addition to the Montepulciano d'Abruzzo. wine culture plus a ton more people means better wine for your $ in Italy. some great wines here in Oregon but they usually cost more and the good stuff isn't on tap. saw people over there buying growlers of good wine out of what most closely resembled a gas pump

I've seen that in Australia too. A trailer with two big wine barrels on it for growler fills. One red, one white
The US is way too snooty about wine. Idk why we have to treat it like a luxury product here

No it doesn't, it's a liquid...if you pour it on something that thing is now wet, not dry.
