Any wine drinkers here?

dang, i was drinking boones strawberry hill when i was a lil kid.

there is another "type of champagne" called something like bavo or baco. champagne is stored in dark dark cellars, i think this stuff is very similar to champagne but is not as dry and is stored in a cave in italy or spain. it is available in the US.

Are you thinking of a Cava? Also, champagne is exclusively from the Champagne region in France. Otherwise it's just a sparkling white. Just a little tid-bit there.

maybe cava. i know champagne only comes from a region in france. what i was talking about is like champagne and only comes from a cave in italy or spain or somewhere.

the difference is that it matures quicker (2 years) and isnt supposed to be so dry? i dont know, im out of my element talking wine but this seemed to be the next closest thing to champagne that ive heard of.

Bad memories coming back... drank way too much Mad Dog 20/20 and Boone's back in college. I remember we got snowed in one day and classes were canceled, we treked out to the store and bought their entire stock of Boone's and had a Boone's Farm party. What a hangover the next day, wow.
haha

back in HS we'd always get md 20/20 and there was always at least one person who couldn't stand it after we convinced them to get it

so that meant I always got a free bottle.. and hangover

btw the champange you recomended for new years the veuve cliquot p was pretty damn good, good call

as far as sweet wines go count me out, i'm all in on the dry stuff, chianti is my go to these days and no one can beat trader joes, 12 bottles for under $60 doesn't get any better

Oh nice! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Veuve Cliquot is so delicious. I don't normally like sparkling wines of any kind for the most part, but I love me some Veuve.

md was easier to steal, not that I'm proud of that

I'm partial to Wild Irish Rose myself. LOL.
Some friends of mine created a version of a sake bomb (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sake_bomb) called an Irish Knife Fight. Instead of chopsticks, they used plastic knives, and used Wild Irish Rose instead of sake.
