Best wine to end a bad day

WINE TALK

I read somewhere that Julia Child’s favorite wine on a hot summer day was a gin and tonic. Quite right. Well, I had one hell of a bad day recently and found the perfect wine to carry me into evening.

Sherry. Perks the palate as well as the spirit.

Neal crafts a compelling argument.

homemade Meyer Limoncello in the freezer sees significant action on bad days

Wow. I love it when my vices are made to seem almost wholesome!

Perhaps not, but it IS your screensaver…

A good gin and tonic at the end of a bad and hot day is very therapeutic.

Looks pretty good to me, I like the chilled glass.

The nice wooded view and the pool doesn’t hurt either.

I rediscovered Patron last week while in Costa Rica. Since the wine situation was so awful, beer and patron became the pool/beachside beverage of choice. And a fine choice it is.

Aged single malt for the truly tough ones, and gin and tonics for the truly hot ones.

You know, people complain about me liking fruit wines and others liking high alcohol 14%+ ABV bombs yet here you are indulging in a CACTUS wine that far surpasses any Cali Pinot Noir or overdone Sauternes. Hmph. Double standards. :stuck_out_tongue:

old school, but that was before vaporizors

18

I find that cactus based wines have enough minerality and acidity (salt is a mineral after all, and limes are damn acidic!) to stand up to high alcohol levels!

nice cigar choice.

A good beer.
