Participant[quote=sdrealtor]Temecula is a fun day trip but the wines are very expensive for what you get whihc is no better than fair quality. You can get much and I mean MUCH better wines for less. Save the gas money and start spending Saturday’s at SD Wine Company. You wallet and your palette will thank you.[/quote]
SD Wine Company sounds great. If I did the Temecula thing, it would be for fun. Has anybody been to the Orphilia or Ophilia (something like that) place on the way up to Julian? I’ve been tempted to stop a couple times.

Participant[quote=nocommonsense]I got a bottle of Chardonnay for $2 at Stater Brothers the other day. You read it right–$2 bucks. On one hand it shows you how cheap I am :); on the other hand, I’m simply no wine snob and am blessed with a nondiscriminating palate. I think we’re the most manipulated generations of human history and the quality difference in wines is mostly marketing.
Try the $2 and $100 wines side by side and tell me if you can tell the difference, or if the difference is worth $98.[/quote]
This is the reason I started the thread. I used to think they were all pretty much the same until I tried a couple of the recommendations on the old wine thread. I was pleasantly surprised, but I don’t want to have to try a bunch of $20 wines to find a couple I like when there are folks here who know what their talking about.

ParticipantI’m a newbie, so I don’t know. I did like the Ghost Pines Merlot that was recommended on the other thread. I was hoping for general recommendations for everyone.

My second point was why our gov’t has not aided in this clean up? Is it trying to make oil drilling look badly? They don’t need help. The gov’t has ships, and people who could aid in the leak and it seems that they are keeping their distance. Similar to the charges that were leveled against Bushy after Katrina. [/quote]Big difference here. Katrina was as act of God and this gusher is an act of man.
The people responsible for the disaster are responsible to fix it.[/quote]
A disaster is a disaster. Obama’s administration has had 5 weeks, and haven’t done anything but launch a couple investigations and bitch about the dispersant. We know the only difference to you, Brian, is that your Messiah is in charge this time.
