Any wine drinkers?

[deepsouthmafia]

I tried a Vinho Verde that was kinda spritzy that I REALLY liked.
Totally yummy.

Wifey is taking me to some hoydy toydy wine tasting event tonight.
I have’nt drank wine since the Boons Farm days of high school.
Is there any chance a Miller Lite drinker enjoys himself at a wine tasting?

Miller Lite ---- Best lite beer there is by far. About to pop one open now.

[deepsouthmafia]

Yeah Miller Lite for life.
Do’nt see myself becoming a wine drinker anytime soon.

What I do’nt get is the various flavors.
Like, they would say, “this sauvignon blank has lemongrass and kiwi notes.”
or “this malbec has a hint of graphite,” (wth???)
“this chardonnay is buttery.”
You get the idea.
Do they actually add that crap to the wine?

Think about hop flavors in beer, same thing. Different grapes grown in different regions will have different flavors.

KQ, care to chime in here on the quality of SE Washington wines? They are pretty good. L'ECole = basalty dirt tasting, but GOOD.

Did they have any Cabernet Franc at your wine tasting DSM? Cool history of that varietal and one of my favorites to eat with steak or just drink.

Merlot = not a favorite, but when blended with other varieties it's pretty good.

Table wine = cheap blend that the winery couldn't find a better use for.

Viticulture is a pretty cool science, splicing, pollenating, selection all to make a better tasting grape.

And, yes, I drink Miller Lite too.

Jesus Fucking Christ. What in the actual fuck is going on here?

Just make sure you comment on the aroma of fresh opened tennis balls. People will loose their shit if you say it with a nonfruity white. Super funny... u will look like a pro.

No one south of the Mason Dixon line drinks wine. Bring bourbon.

I live S. of the M-D line and drink both. Some would say too much of both. In the same evening.

Heh - "pretty good." Some of the best reds in the world come from KQ's neighborhood.

And, yes, I drink Miller Lite too.

High Life - the Champagne of beers. But only ice cold and in the summer.

Why don't you fuck off and start a mint Julep thread?

[Tippster]

Me? Why?

[XXX-er]

Sorry, I meant the OP of course

[justinspau]

Mmmmmm mint julep....

Mint juleps have bourbon in them, so as a bourbon fan I'd rather he (meaning dsm) fuck off and move on to cosmopolitans.

I really like Charles Smith winery. Every wine I've had from them has been good. I personally like merlot and I like to have a bottle of Velvet Devil on hand most of the time.

I’ve been loving everything from Le ptit Paysan. Ian Brand is killing it.
Also, Sea Pearls, a Sauvignon Blanc from, Marlborough, is a go to, for crisp, mineral acidity. I like drinking wine.
Go on now

It started with this:

I have’nt drank. . . .

and went downhill from there

[deepsouthmafia]

Going to some fancy “wine bar” tonight with Mrs. DSM and some of her girlfriends.
Apparently she has decided were wine drinkers now.
