Leelanau Peninsula? Where's that? In Michigan?! You could get some good Prosecco for that price.

There something about being able to say, "Let's drink some Sex, baby."

Of course, we could play around with this for quite a while. :laugh:

Wouldn't it be better to say, Let's have some Sex, baby? Of course, you could inquire about Sex at the Beach, or a Fuzzy Naval, or a Slow Screw Against the Wall, etc. But if you are serious about drinking something bubbly, I think you can get a better bang for your buck.

Yup. The Spanish Cava we've been drinking this summer. (Distributor closed it out & I buy it at $6.49 a bottle. :wub: )

I've heard that there are two problems with this wine: If you suggest having it to your SO, she is likely to say, "Not tonight dear, I'll have a headache." And if you drink alone, your palms turn hairy.

Based on your prior mentions and in light of the mini heat wave we've been having lately, I've been enjoying some Tavel of late. Not too shabby.

I had a couple glasses of Tavel last evening. :wub:

BTW, have you popped it yet?

I'm thinking I should wait until I can play Prince's classic B-side, "Erotic City." (I don't think I'll post the chorus here. :blink: )

How about D-day's "Too Young to Date"?

That'd work, too.

Though it reminds of the section of "Middlesex" that I read last night. :blink:

You don't want "Erotic City, " that's too fast. You want "Do Me Baby."

Oh, and save a bottle or two of the Spanish Cava for GR.

It's Little Red Corvette that's way too fast.

"Do Me Baby" stills stands up (no pun intended :wink: ) after all these years.

To answer your original question, I thought of it in the same vein as Larry Mawby's other sparklers -- very pleasant, some character, a little pricy but not too dear.

We gave a bottle of this to a very good friend for her recent 50th birthday, with the expected sex-related comments on her bd card.

My favorite saying (or close enough) of the many on his winery's tasting room walls: "There are 10 types of people -- those who understand binary and those who don't." :wink:

My favorite of Larry's wines (and the most expensive, of course) is his "Mille."

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power.  -Robert G. Ingersoll, lawyer and orator

 

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles. -George Jean Nathan, author and editor
