VinoVinoVino: Discovering an Italian Wine Fair
VinoFamily/flickr It’s been a few years since I’ve gone to Vinitaly , Italy’s largest wine fair, in Verona. It’s huge, chaotic, and difficult to navigate, with many regional Italian pavilions crammed with booths. Some stands look like Disneyland castles, with private tasting rooms, and there’s plenty of rustic, wine-cask décor. There are also three concurrent wine fairs— Summa 10 , VinNatur … Tim Minchin – White Wine In The Sun (Christmas Song)

What do you think about someone getting you a bottle of wine from the 99 cent store?
It’s a 1999 Pinot Noir, its not tainted, but for some reason they had these GLASS wine bottles there and I bought one
I’m going to try it out first, but what feelings would you have to getting a bottle of wine that tasted good, it was 8 years old, but it did come from the dollar store for the holidays
Just don’t tell them you found it at the dollar store. Nobody needs to know where you bought it.

Has a particular box wine changed your opinion of box wines in general?
The person above me is wrong about boxed wines. Once opened, they can be slowly consumed and not lose any flavor. Why? Because the spout does not allow air in to oxidize the wine. Therefore, the wines last a LOT longer. I’ve had them last for 6 months or more, because I’m the only one drinking them. A bottle of wine is meant to be consumed within a day or two of opening. Why? Because once the cork is out of the bottle, it starts to oxidize. Once a wine starts to oxidize, it isn’t fit for drinking, but is excellent for cooking.
I have quite a few bottles in my wine “cellar”. I’ll be getting a few more bottles when I go to the wine and jazz festival in Morgantown, WV next month. I’ll still buy a box of wine, so my bottle collection can continue to grow.
If you want a truly horrible wine….. buy mad dog or ripple…. or riunite royal raspberry. Riunite’s Lambrusco isn’t bad…. as long as you like a dry red.
