Merlots that drink like Cabs?

Apparently there was a big wine snob summit in Seattle. I wonder if Kim was a guest speaker as a who's who in the Seattle sports scene.

apparently it's mostly people in the wine industry that go, not washed up real estate agents from Renton.

Seems like a good place UW could have set up a tent and get more season ticket holders.

Is Zima considered a sparkling wine?

Nothing lamer than a wine snob.

Can't respect a man that doesn't appreciate good wine, but any man that specializes in wine over whisk(e)y and beer is a total nancy.

Appreciating it and knowing enough to know what you prefer is one thing.

But without exception anyone who claims they are some wine connoisseur that isn't an actual sommelier is full of shit.

Franzia is my favorite brand of wine. Franzia is a awesome, because it comes in a box, which houses a bladder that holds the wine. And that's really cool, IMO, because that way the wine never goes bad. Plus it's only like $15 a box, and you get like 7 times the amount you would get in a normal bottle of wine. In my experience, it's best enjoyed while watching an episode of Friends, or listening to your favorite Dane Cook album.

Nothing like a good tour de franzia in the pool with some Bros and some really stupid younger chicks.

Wine has some good selling points. It's stronger than beer, the alcohol content is usually 2 to 3 times greater, so you don't have to drink as much of it to get your buzz on. Less lard formation on the hips. Moscato and white zinfandel taste fucking great. Not as hard on the liver as whiskey, vodka or whatever other hard drink you like.

All kidding aside the Black Box brand is pretty decent. Basically you're getting cab or merlot for about $4.50 a bottle that drinks like $8.00 cab or merlot.
