If I buy a box of wine, do I chill it before serving, or tap it as soon as I get home from the grocery store?

Also, do I let my wife smell the cap first when we crack open the Boones Farm, or should I?

Potts, chill it if it's red wine, tap it immediately if it's white.

Me and my buddies drank a bottle of Wild Irish Rose that was sitting in the back of a car window in Puerto Rico in 1989. **** was well over 110 degrees.

Tasted better that way for some reason. Plus it is much more enjoyable to actually drink while driving on the way to a place to drink more.

Ever drink Cisco?

'Hot Wine in Puerto Rico'

sounds like a song title.

Be SURE to put some crushed ice in you glass in either case. Red or white - it always tastes better with crushed ice. The ice breaks the surface of the wine and allows it to breathe more providing maximum nose...

Busa,

Naw only a 750ml. I was one of those 19 year old macho Marine moments where only the **** wouldn't drink it.

Puerto Rico was a freaking blast back then. 20 minute ride to 60 bars in Luquillo, finish the Wild Irish Rose and start the party!!

When we finished using the car for a year, we just burned it on the side of the road, drove it into the ocean, or drove it off a cliff. Of course after spray painting it and trying to blow the engine.

Freaking criminals, it's almost embarrasing now..... almost.
