Quaffable

I am hardly what one would term an oenophile, though I do enjoy fine wines, well, as long as they’re red.  Recently, I was treated to half a case of Two-Buck Chuck Cabernet, Charles Shaw Wine, and, I have to admit, it was quite quaffable.  A solid table wine in my opinion.  Evidently, Charles is branching out, hoping to market a Ten-or Twelve-Buck Chuck.  It might be worth purchasing a bottle, if you can, due to its limited availability.

  1. I’ll trade you 2 8-5-8’s for one bottle of Chuck.  Been wanting to try it.  Deal???

  2. Well, it would be, if I had a bottle still available.

  5. WTF is an 8-5-8?

  6. Tom: An 8-5-8 is a mild to medium bodied cigar made by the Arturo Fuente cigar family.  The draw is always smooth and the burn always even. Filler and Binder are both Dominican with a natural or maduro Cameroon wrapper.

    John: Pick a night, I’ll bring a growler of Hatter and the humidor!

  7. Wishing I could join you with a bottle of Yalumba Tawny Galway Pipe Port, if you would pardon my ignorance. I do enjoy a good stoggy!

  8. Oh, and John, If you and Lou would ever get out here I could share some of my “3 buck Tom” with you! For about 7 months now I have been making wine and have put about 120 bottles in the cellar minus the 30 or so Holly has consumed. Currently I have Pinot Blanc and Lodi old vine Zinfandel in barrel almost ready to bottle!

  9. Tom, I may be close, in December, when I may very well be in Denver with Lou for P’s wedding recept.

    You may have to hold a bottle, or eight, until 2005.  Say February or so.

    Thanks for the note.

  10. Wiz, How does Wednesday night sound?  Mad Hatter and an 8-5-8 on the front porch.
