Allen did give me a heads up, posted a tracking number that said today was the day.
Don't think we've ever traded, perhaps swapped cigars? I know I only have his old Milwaukee addy and that he moved...we have become pretty close through PM's and emails over several years, easily sharing some joys and sincerely consoling each other over deep sorrows, you know, like the real friends we have become.
so after removing a few pounds of packing peanuts, I pulled a pet sized casket out of the box. Sloshing noise was a good hint, and Allen is the King of Wine (whine, no, that's me).
Still had to get a screw driver to open this baby...
SIX beautiful bottles of Rose wines! packed in their own perfect wooden wine case.
Roditis-Greece
Villa des Anges-France
L'Ostal-France
Ercavio-Spain
Chateau Haut Sarthes-France
Tres Ojos-Spain
My mind is blown! Gorgeous shades of rose, pink, salmon...stunning box presentation.
Allen, this is just so crazy. And such wonderful timing, I did need a spirit lifting event today, and what beautiful spirits these are.
You may have an idea, but you'll never know how much this means to me.
L'Chaim!!
