No adult beverages for Moi tonight nor tomorrow, I have labs to do.
Cabernet franc from 2022. Normally I’d enjoy this in the backyard, but it’s super hot out and the air quality is terrible from forest fires.

I have probably tried a couple over the years - we mostly drink Canadian/Ontario wines. When you live only a couple hours from a major wine-producing region (and a couple hours in the other direction from a minor wine-producing region) it’s really easy to just take a day/weekend trip and stock up for the next 6 months!Have you tried new Zealand wines???

I bought Yellowtail but the bottles don't fit in the fridge so they're out.I have wineries 30 mins away.
Aussie wines are good. Try yellowtail if you get a chance. They are really good

rascal I'm a Cupcake vineyard from NZ kinda gal. I wait for our local grocer, Krogers aka Fry's, has their 25% off wine, I buy a case + .
The regular price is $15USD, on sale I get it for less than $5.
Well, the conversion rate right now is $1NZ to $0.59USD, so, that's about the same, $11.80 - $17.70USD to your $20-30NZ ... which is a big reason why I wait for my big discount daysWow. Just wow . We pay around $20 for a nice wine. Per bottle.
Even aussie wines we pay 20 to.30
I only drink red usually a merlot.
