wow, talk about a lot of no nothings spewing garbage. there are some fantastic reds that come from this area, red cat being one of my favorites, and i usually don’t care for sweet wines. oh, and some of you “work” with it, and some of you like to think you drink it, but the gf and i empty 3 cases a month of various wines (not including what we drink when we are out). so i bet i am more antioxidized that any of you 😛 ---

Red Cat, is that the hot tub wine? I’m a big fan of pinot noir and merlot, both red. I think Spence said it already, but Charles Shaw (aka Two Buck Chuck) from Trader Joe’s=awesome. We buy them by the case when we’re in an area that has a Trader Joe’s. ---

[quote=“BuickGN,post:46,topic:26524"”] i make my own wine, much better. [/quote] Prison wine FTW Some of the best wines I have tasted were in Long Island. Dirt cheap too. 15 3oz samples for 4 dollars plus a pass to sample 8 more on a north fork vineyard. Latley, I have been into dessert wines for after meals with some people. Most favorite are the blushes. Favorite bottle for the price was Duck Walk Vineyard in Southampton, NY. 9.95 for a bottle and it was just an amazing wine to sit and drink outside in the sun. ---

Red wines even burn fat. The minerals from the grape skins dissolve fat when you drink with meals. Red Wines are good for your health when you don’t abuse them of course. ---

[quote=“Schema,post:55,topic:26524"”] I was actually going to pick that up before I opted to try the Prejeans first, good thing I didn’t 🙂 [/quote] My wife and I went to Bully Hill about 4 years back for a tasting. I tried a few of them and spit them all back in the glass. The person working said, what’s the matter. I said all of them have sucked so far. We left 🙂 As for Red Cat, I always have some at the house. I have brought over magnums of it to parties and it always disappears. I haven’t met one person that didn’t like it. I tried it about 8 years ago when I was at Watkins Glen. Now it’s my drink of choice. :tup: from me for Red Cat And it is recommended as a dessert wine, but it goes sooooo well with steak or chicken dinners.
