I've already worn that winery out with subtle attempts, decent wine, not great
thing is we're not even reading the labels. it's like mating birds, we're just looking for flashy shit that catches the eye.
a wine label with only words? i'll never even notice it's there. definitely not getting bought.

No love here for wines from Palisade or Paonia on CO's western slope? Asking for the Chamber of Commerce.

Damn, great Napa monarchs there. That Spottswood received 100 points from both Jeb Dunneck and Robert Parker.....remember what I said earlier about points? Grain of salt, but that wine should be incredible. Drink both of those with your favorite steak.

I know very little about wine, but my cousin owns this place. I've tried a few bottles, seems ok.

Reading this thread, trying to figure out where Busch Lite Apple fits in. Feeling confused.

I've actively traded way more wine that stocks, and done pretty damn well. If one just stuck to Grand Cru Burgundy, First Growth Bordeaux and Napa Cult Cabs it's incredibly safe investing.

Speaking of buying on labels, this wine is called The Hated Hunter.

Probably because they grow Tea there. My Uncle emigrated there for about 20 years, until the violence hit too close to home. I'm Mad that i never gotto go there to visit when he had his farm there.

Good to know. Pretty sure the guy that gave them to me spends high 5 figures a year on wine.
The Muscat from Rotta , the 1968 was a 1st and memorable.$1.99 a gal, by the case and a favorite of the Rose Parade hippie crowd.
I threw up in the backyard and got a lecture from mom...

You haven't lived until you have had sheep's head ala Basque. I will never forget walking into my aunt's kitchen and seeing a whole sheep's head laying on the counter. She married a Spanish Basque immigrant and he had invited friends from the old country to dinner.

I don't think I would do well investing in wine. Empty bottles probably aren't worth much.

Yakima Valley is a great place to grow wine grapes.I know very little about wine, but my cousin owns this place. I've tried a few bottles, seems ok.

A guy in Hamilton started Blodgett Canyon Cellars. He would buy grapes from Washington, haul them home and make wine in his basement. He made really good wine, but it was expensive. I hung some drywall in his "Cellar" and made some store display racks in trade for wine. Like most hobbies that turn into a business, it turned into work, and he sold the business several years ago.
Not sure who owns it now.

The intrinsic value of Boones Farm for small town Saturday night barter was immeasurable.
