There are two types of winemakers Varis. Those who have too much home made wine. And those who someday will!

Couple good deals from Wine Slash arrived today.

Had a visit today from the Long Shadows delivery man! A little vino from WA state so @ibglowin doesnt think I’m too one dimensional....

Probably a good choice to expand your sights to the North. Seems like Mother nature is intent on burning Napa Valley to the ground one way or another.

Head to Mendocino county wines, they aren't burning, at least not this year.

Happy Friday folks!

Stocking up on more Central CA Coast goodness while I still can.

As well as a late Spring and Fall allocation from Spring Valley Vineyards in the WWV. Sharilee is a 100% pure PV.

Some new arrivals today from earlier this year. Odette Cab is one of my favorite all time wines, this winery continues to churn out this impressive wine year after year. It’s so flavorful and full with silky smooth tannins, it’s mouthwatering just looking at it. Haven’t been fortunate enough to try the Reserve yet.....

What did the Odette Cab set you back per bottle? Had it once and it was superb.

I think it retails for 130/140, I get it from a wholesaler for just over 100.

My wife called me and said she was getting my birthday present early. Aldi wine advent calendar. She bought 2 plus a beer one!

Hmmmmm, that really is how that reads.....well, you get the picture. I can tell you, I’m not making any money at this game, all expenditures, no revenues, and other than the occasional hangover, really nothing to show for it!

 

[ibglowin]

LOL I want to know how a large building contractor became a wine retailer as well!

Are those your bottles? How did you get gold foil for the labels??? I ask because labeling and label design are some of my favorite activities for making my wines, and my tribute Cab Sav in memorium for my dad really could benefit!
