My family owns a vineyard, so yes, I like wine. Not too much of a conneseiur but I enjoy Red Zinfandel and Chambourcin, along with Reisling cause it's a n00b dessert wine.

The only wine i really drink is choke cherry wine made by the hutterites (kinda like the amish), they make all osrts of wine, but most of it sucks *** (beet wine, dandy lion ect)..the choke cherry isnt bad though...dry..not real sweet. Strong *** wine too..a few glasses will get you hammered. I trade them bottles of lord calvert for it. Gotta love the hutterites...they have some fcking good *** hams, turkey, chickens and shit too.

I grew up all over western washington (tacoma, west seattle, bremerton, port angeles) and never heard of them till i moved here. They are a ultra religious group that lives communally and farm. They are one of 3 remaining Anabaptist groups formed around the time of the protestant reformation (1521 or so iirc). The other two are the Amish and the Mennonites. They all dress alike and live in communes where they work on the communal farm. Like religious hippies dressed up like little house on the prairie.

If you are looking for a good wine that you can find in most liquor stores, I recommend ANY Francis Coppala Diamond series wine. Particuaraly the merlot, and White Zin.

And one of my favorite wines is the Gerweurstraminer (sp?... its a long word) from simon creek winary in Door County, WI.

Work at a winery here, gotta love the port wines. We make all organic wine so no worries of hang overs, and other problems that happen with wine. I tend to perfer semi sweet and semi dry wines. We have an awesome port style wine, (no brandy added) we just ferment it extra long to get a higher proof. We have several silver and bronse metal winers as well, mostly our dry wines, cab-franc, our kindom Red (Boca Noir) Always fun is drinking some really sweet wine, and then taking some Cab-Franc. It feels like your mouth is burning,lol. I can't think of what grapes we use for our wines off the top of my head, I havn't had to work there in a while so i've forgotten them all, owell. If your ever in the Finger Lakes region, check out 4 Chimneys winery on Senica Lake

Thats how it's done //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

The grapes we grow are Frontinac (red grapes for port), St Croix (white grapes for ?) and Concords on the fence next to our vineyard because they grew here wild since the 40's. The vines are like 5 inches thick in places.

Then after all of this...

I was at the liquor store the other day and we got a bottle of Boones Farm Blue Hawaiian for 2.10.
