I was going to open a bottle of wine tonight. Then I made a Cuba Libre. Another day for wine.

Hell yes!! The bubble room is the shite!! Aw man, sit under that eucalyptus tree by the fountain and have a glass of the XB for me. Little slice of heaven right there.

We are club members now. I love J.

Shocked at how much I'm enjoying this one, my wife hates it. I can't remember us ever diverging so much over a bottle. Will probably get some more and hold it.

Yeah it's a 5 course wine and food pairing at J Vineyards in Healdsburg. They call it the bubble room.

Been really loving these Jenny & Francois From The Tank wines. It’s a 3L box, good juice for about 30 ish a box. They make a white, Rose, and red. Park one of each in the back fridge and always have a glass handy.

Did the old world wine tasting at Oak Wine Bar

Never had Txokalina before. It’s fantastic.

I also Had Wagner’s Bonanza they NV super cheap cab which for 24 bucks was incredible.

If anyone is interested, LastBottle is doing their marathon right now. They list wines at discount until they're gone. Some last barely a minute, some longer.

Some good finds available, although there is some chaff and you've got to do a little research to confirm a good deal at times. But there are good deals and hard to get find stuff to be found, at least for those of us who are amateurs/casual drinkers.

This needs to be bumped for the holidays. It's one of the times that I'll spend up to $40 on a bottle of wine

Fitting because today is Beaujolais Nouveau Day. This year's isn't as fruity as last year, but it could still replace your cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving.

Miscommunication on the part of our market rep kept us on just the normal trade tour.

Not sure how that happened because she knew the only reason we were going was for the bubble room.

We did have a nice bubbles and cheese pairing. The whole trip was amazing though. Best trip of my life so far for sure.

Need to bring this thread back.

Pouring some of the 2017 8 years in the desert because it's finally drinking nicely. In the middle of making ragu for tonight.
