Winemakers are full of DooDoo

[Captdon]

The stuff is chemically fermented. It is to wine as a Whopper is to a quality hamburger.

Wine is not something I drink. It's all bad as far as I'm concerned.(Except champaign) Also, Mad dog 20-20 is a joke.

I find myself spending more on tea. I'll pay $20 to $30 for an ounce or two of lui-an or pu-erh (varieties of aged tea). I only drink it on the weekends. I get my money's worth though. It's an enjoyable experience and I can get up to 4 infusions out of an aged tea. For example, today I drank a lui-an from the 1980s and it drank it all day. I infused the serving I had with breakfast 4 times. The 4th serving was a little watery but it still held up reasonably well. Now wine I'm like Common. I won't pay more than $15 for a bottle of wine.

Wish I had known someone like you when cleaning out my grandparents house. I am pretty sure they had random tea from the 50's and 60's shoved in the back of cabinets

Technically, it has to come from the Champagne region (department, province?) to be actual champagne. Otherwise it's merely sparkling wine.

Surely 50 years worth of greasy dust locked in the flavor

Prosecco in Italy. Cava in Spain.

It is bitter and creates the "dry" to the wine. It is why you have to be more careful when cooking with red wine. Reduce it too much and it is pure bitter in your dish.

I knew what tannins are but my point was they dont have a taste, yes it gives it the dryness but cabernet savignon is a dry wine by any brand.

My family passed off Asti Spumante as champagne my whole life

I got to samsclub which is im guessing 10-15% discounted wine prices, they had a cabernet savignon that was 68.99. Not a chance Id buy it because ive tasted 30-40.00 bottles of wine and didnt like them one bit.

All that expensive wine crap is just that and wine tasters lol Im supposed to believe that if they like the taste of a wine, I will too

That's stuff's pretty sweet, compared to champagne.
