Quick, this new one, is this a sweet dessert wine? Or just a sweet wine like Manischevitz?

Never mind, missed it.

I missed out on the Domini Veneti Recioto della Valpolicella Vigneti di Moron. I hit buy it and it sold out.

No was not like a sweet wine like your thinking,

It wasn't sweet at all? Their descriptions are weird. They made it sound like a dessert wine. Did they mean "a nice wine to have with dessert"?

Yes,

It was a Valpolicella they are not sweet. If you want sweet try a Muscato SP

That
St. Emillion that just sold out at $130 a bottle is almost like the 2000 St. Emillion that was given to me last year as a gift.

Well, fooey. I wanted a sweet dessert-style wine. Like an ice wine. Just as well I didn't get it.

That St. Emillion looked very nice. Was your gift bottle great?

Note to self: don't bring Frank any wine as a gift

I was thinking he might like a bottle of my Pozzi.

I still have not opened it.

That Sterling that just sold out is excellent but I have seen it for $60 a bottle and less if you take a case. Not sure where the bargain was there.

Oh come on, You won't buy me one.


WM I thought about that $10 Chianti from before. I kept thinking that I had. I just checked my past orders with them and Yep, I bought it in Nov.
Le Calvane
Chianti Classico DOCG
Colli Fiorentini
2004
FREE SHIPPING


BTW that last 99 Bordeaux they had free shipping on 3 bottles or more. But they only had 1 bottle of it.

(on 6 or more) (18001)

You mean they only had one bottle, period? Or they only had one bottle by the time you clicked?

If they only have one bottle of these things, no wonder they sell out so fast! But why do they take so long to load the next one?

As soon as they put up a new wine look at the quantity button. Some have 5 some have 8 some 4 or 3. Most of the times they are set with 36 when they have a lot. They have 23 of the last one they just put up.

Ooooohhh! You are brilliant, Frank. Now they still have 15 of this one?

I think I'll go to the wine store tonight and buy whatever they have on sale. Or some Everclear. What the heck, it's all alcohol. I'll throw some red dye in there.

Do they sell Everclear in NJ? We used to have to drive to MA for it when I was in college
