Realizing the content produced on this website I have to say you may think the author a bit of a lush, I hope that this is really not the case, in all practical nature wine isn’t a part of my every day experience and due to some family situations not usually a part of any event as well. Wine is something that I like to experience for the tastes and experience at the winery it self.
Sure a good wine with a good meal is nice, however when my electric cellar is near empty after 3-4 years of storage of a bottle that I know I once liked has been stored and finally enjoyed. It’s so hard to open the wine that I have in my collection, for one reason and one reason only. I don’t drink more than 2-3 ounces in a night and never finish the wine that was even poured for me at a tasting room. Why not? I just don’t like the feeling of loosing even a little control.
That said I still would love to be a wine club member at a couple of locations without risking my resolve to never have more than 2-3 ounces in a night. Finishing a entire bottle of wine is nearly impossible to do before it starts tasting more like vinegar and a lot less like the wonderful bottle of wine than I purchased and brought home to enjoy. Why do all of the bottles of wine have to be so big?
