Good red wines?
« on: January 13, 2012, 12:24:54 PM »
So. I never drink alcohol especially after discovering cannabis.

But, my mothers brother (dont know he word in englishol) brought a bottle of red wine to xmas dinner. Which tasted Awesome. Not the random after taste which wine usually has.

So. I have decided to drink a glas of red wine during the weekend. Anyone here drink wine? Bay? (no homo)

This is the cheap red wine Im currently drinking. Not the best, but not That bad either.

Let's say a Château Margaux ?

A glass of red wine daily is actually really good for u and helps u sleep if u drink it at night.  My family is very italian and they have been doing this for decades.  Look it up

i like the wine from spain and portugal. even though they are less frequent in winestores across europe and even more in the US, because of the small production, that is, if you compare it to france's production...

there's a sea of good wine if you try to look a bit off from the obvious

I would say 50 pounds on a solid special occasion wine.

10-15 pounds on normal one which I know I will be happy with.

and around 8 pounds just for trying different wines.

This wine went good with my dried moose meat  ;D

yep, mothers brother = morbror
       Fathers brother = farbror

Mor = mother
Far = father
Bror = brother

but far/mor isn't Super commonly used.
Mamma = mother    
pappa = father
is a lot more common.

older people refer to their parents at mor or far usually.  well I do at times also. it depends on the situation

 Something in a nice easily transportable box, or a cheap ruby port. A big ass bottle ot Riunite rosato will also get the job done, shit gives me heartburn personally.
 Ever heard of bourbon?
