Thanks for asking!

I"m drinking the sweet nectar of victory. And some wine.


McWilliam's Riesling South Eastern Australia, Hanwood Estate (2006)($11.00)

I saw this in the grocery and decided to try it even though I knew nothing about it. I later found that Wine Spectator rated it 88 points. It's dry but it has a smooth middle that provides just a hint of being off-dry. Good acidity on the finish provides a nice bite. An 88 point wine for eleven bucks is definitely a bargain. And it was even more of a bargain for me because I got an instant $1.00 coupon with my Bi-Lo bonus card.

I got them. Thank you again. More Turley sounds good.

But the other link didn't take me to Bordeaux but a 90 point Alsace sparkler for 18 bucks. 55% off. I might try it.

Yeah, I guess the Wines til Sold Out offering had changed by the time you saw it.  I have been buying up the 09 bordeaux.  Heck for $10 per bottle and a 90 pt WS rating why not.   I need a large cooler though.  My wine is getting in the way of the file storage at my office!

You mean your files are getting in the way of your wine storage

I feel that way about the food in my fridge. It's really infringing on my stock of beer.
