What is all this six cloves praise. I picked it out of the blue and everyone seems to think it is ā€œthe bomb.ā€ I had never heard of it. Time to start a thread?

Not ā€œThe Bombā€ in the fruit bomb sense but in the old school lighter bodied more expressive style.

ā€œThe Bombā€ s my son uses the term - in other words so good it will blow you away.

I know what the term means, my response was just a play on words.

Yellow card :slight_smile:

Ok - Lucky to be in the air for preview day and in a platform tennis tournament on Friday. Unlucky, offers were extended…

Got my usual suspects - Goodfellow 3 cases of sparkling and berserker cuvee’s, Kelley Fox 1 case assorted including 4 Riesling as I bought that three pack and it is the bomb, 1 case PGC 6 monopole cru offer and six assorted 23’s. Grabbed some Hangers and some Grassel stems to replace broken - and the 48 pack for parties. Gosh, I’ve grown up! So only 60 bottles from my must buy OR producers and Hangers and Glassware! Jez still 60 bottles lol!

Missed Violin as @Will_Hamilton quickly closed his offer but will remedy that. Also, will be in touch with @Nola Palomar and @Carrie Morgon at some point soon.

I was tempted by some wine offers, most of which I bought last year, but given I already bought 49 bottles in January, I decided to not compound my storage headaches. Ended up buying hanger steaks, Spanish sardines and spices, and a bit of merch.

I would blame French wine if I could, but most of this is American sourced. :upside_down_face:

Red Electric - Pinot and Chard
Cabot old syrahs
Championship Bottle - a little bit of everything
Royer chards

Winning!

And last of all b/c @Nathan.D finally jumped on board and joined the community and then couldn’t resist–

Going off blurry memory, I think I got:

12 Goodfellow (6 x 6 of the Berserker wine)
6 Sandar & Hem pinots
6 Cabot (3 newer zin, 3 chardonnay)
12 Perry Colin (splitting with @brigcampbell so 6 for me)
4 magnums of Liquid Farm (3 chardonnay, 1 pinot)

I think that was it, though you and I won’t be surprised if something else arrives in the mail that I forgot I purchased.

I normally buy Flannery and Morgan Ranch, but I already have a decent amount of both in the freezer and we are early on in a major kitchen remodel and so my storage plus cooking ability is curtailed right now. Ditto for buying more glasses and stuff like that.

As usual, not much clue how I’m storing and drinking all this wine, but such is the life of the Wine Berserker. It’ll all be fine in the end.
