agxo3 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 drunk alreaadyAnd from that I see you are entirely missing the point. Wine is not for getting drunk - cheap beer and even cheaper cuatro cantos is perfect for that. Wine - GOOD wine of ANY price is meant to be savored and enjoyed and shared. Not quaffed in an attempt to go blind, even if only for a while. Quote Link to comment

Maybe that's why the three of us got a little drunk drinking beer last Wedn. but not cheap beers, I should say.Good luck on your new ventures and we'll drink to that the next time we see each other.

agxo3 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) sounds good! just let me know when you want it to happen. So far, weeknights are open.I wish I could join you!! But, no plans to head over that way any time soon...... this is the first weekend I've had since the Nw Year where I wasn't sick or working. The good news - it's Super Bowl Sunday!! what to drink? well, the first question is - what to eat! Weather is nice so I think I'm firing up the outdoor grill and doing either baby back ribs, smoked pork loin, or spicy-glazed chicken wings. No beer - the universal drink for burnt meat is a nice zin. I just received my latest Inglenook (formerly Rubicon - just a name change) Edizione Pennino zin shipment. there's a 2007 in there that promises to be smooth, jammy, intense, slightly peppery complimenting the plum and dark berries flavors......i can taste it already! have fun, cheer on the 'niners, eat well, drink well, but don't drink and drive!!

bods1000 Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 Prosecco....I had a lot of prosecco with food in.a recent trip and I enjoyed it immensely but I'm not too familiar with it. Is it Italian champagne? Quote Link to comment
J.A.S.O.N Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 i prefer to drink white wine after the dinner Quote Link to comment
bods1000 Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 Learning new things never gets old. Reading Alan Richman's Fork It Over taught me the correct way to pronounce Montrachet - both t's are silent. Cheers! Quote Link to comment
bods1000 Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Apparently it is not bad manners to stir your champagne in a glass to dissipate the bubbles. It seems it is a French custom. This I learned again from Richman's book. And of all people, it was his dinner date Sharon Stone whom he saw doing it. It appears that Sharon Stone is no dumb bimbo as she appears cultured and well-versed in dinner ettiquette and wine appreciation. Looking through the glass of the French white Chateauneuf-du-Pape she was drinking, she remarked: "The wine reminds me of the gowns of Catherine the Great - gold with traces of pink."
