Now here's a fella knows his wines, Agreed, some great "Bourdeaux" types are as well made here in the States, even TN at Arrington Vineyards, et al.
I was lucky, and traveled with a few fellas that had the money to enjoy "whatever", and enjoyed "enlightening" my Kuntry Azz, LOL...............so I was able to enjoy wineries all over the country, specially CA, the only area I missed was OR, and WA, which hopefully one day, my wife and I can mark that off the list as well.
Often they would order some fancy Cakebread, special glass?, etc. I would just usually politely endure and finish it, LOL. But I was sometimes honest, and usually would just drink bourbon.
Never one to pass on an opportunity, I rather enjoyed sampling flights , although I just was already pre-disposed to sweeter wines, as I helped make it as a kid, and adult, mostly local "fruit", often muscadine.......gonna love it fer life!
