This week's best booze

Post by Gaspode » Sat Jan 09, 2021 12:44 am

Mussel Pot white wine...

A cheeky little white wine, bought with a case of mixed wines for Xmas. I'm not a big white wine drinker so I left this till more or less last. It is very good indeed.

Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is the loveliest wine in the world. One day I’ll drink it in New Zealand.

That sounds like something you'd smoke

Two bottles in my Xmas wines case, I can concur it is a very fine wine indeed
However best wine I have ever drunk has to be Iniskillen Merlot. Consumed just a few miles from the vineyard in the restaurant on the top floor of the Crown Plaza Hotel in Niagra Falls overlooking said Falls. I think the location added to the taste of the wine.

Australian riesling is one of the best wines I have tasted, unfortunately riesling reacts with asthmatics so it's not a wine I can have more than a glass of.

Conversely, the worst booze has to be Gordon's zero alcohol gin. I mean, why??

Isn't that just water?
A wanker AND a pansy apparently.
Oh, and a wimp, and 'not a real man'.
