We had a big time wine distributor at our Bethesda location tonight. We were popping some serious bottles for them. Got to take a few sample bottles home for free. :)

Drinking a $300 (retail) bottle of a French blend right now. Ridiculously good. And it cost me nothing. Rock and roll.

Ugh. You make your bed, you lay in it I guess.

Haha. I'm finishing that very bottle right now. Even more delicious now that it's had a days worth of breathing.

wow seems like a long aeration though I've never dealt with a wine like that.. rhum barbancourt is reminding me both of why I used to love rum and also why I'm not much into it anymore

Rodney Strong Knotty Vines Zinfandel. Delicious with the pork tenderloin we cooked tonight.

Re: Drunk Thread
 

how'd you prep and cook the tenderloin?

Had it marinating in a peppercorn sauce (garlic, shallots, ground peppercorns, olive oil) overnight, then cooked in the oven at 375 for about 30 mins. So tender.

dead thread... trying out absolut brooklyn tonight.. not a huge fan of absolut but some of their flavors have been good

this is an apple and ginger.. I started out on ice and it worked well.. so I added a little ginger ale to slow it down

I've been on a vodka kick lately. Picked up some [URL="http://www.harvestspirits.com/core_vodka.html"]Core Vodka[/URL], if you can find some in your area I highly recommend it. It's a hand crafted vodka made in NY from apples. Very clean and smooth. Great in a martini.

Re: Drunk Thread
