Popular Post Damrongsak Posted August 31, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2018 Boone's Farm, Ripple, Thunderbird, Night Train, Mad Dog 20/20 - they're all about the same. I switched over to beer when I attained legal drinking age. About the only wine I really remember tasting was some Retsina. It was actually good, but I like the smell of Pine sap and turpentine. Took awhile to drink the entire bottle. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved thunderbird, but my favorite was Buckfast, huge drink on Scotland, made by English monks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lacessit Posted September 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 12, 2018 That's easy. Booth's Premium Shiraz, a small winery on the southern side of the Warby Range in Victoria. At its peak 1990 to 1997. Couldn't buy it at any retail outlet, was only sold at the cellar door. $15 a bottle, better than anything 10 times the price. I used to buy 2 - 3 dozen every time I visited there. You had to be quick, because it was sold out about 6 weeks after the years' vintage was released. It was the kind of rich, full-bodied red that insisted another glass was necessary. Cliffy Booth, the winemaker, passed away early 2000's. The secret died with him, because later vintages produced by his family were never the same. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardinalblue Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I don’t find ex-pats living in thailand to have wine in their liquid consumption.. Why would a wine and cheese buff move to thailand? Wine makes up 1% of total alcohol consumed by volume... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkerry Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I remember when just about every household had one of these... back when it was still allowed to be called sherry... In a previous life I was lucky enough to be able to try a lot of top shelf wine and single malts. A vertical tasting of Grange with one of the winemakers, including the '86 & '90 is one I still remember fondly. Five hundred dollars a bottle these days... ?

ronaldo0 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Probably a pinotage from Germany. Cant remember the name but could drink it like water it was that good . Don't drink red wine here as find it horrible when chilled but some white wine I had when out for dinner wasn't bad but vastly overpriced !

Crossy Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 In terms of bang-for-the-buck it was some emminently quoffable French red table wine we used to drink in Belgium. It was called "Le Bolleaux" (sp) and came from the local cash and carry. Cost $4.50 Euros for THREE bottles. I used to take it for friends in the UK and tell them it really was the dogs <deleted> ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
