- AlpineOeno - 08-18-2005 FYI If you're into big bad Shiraz, Wine Exchange has 2002 Dead Arm for $34.99, which is a very good price. - Thomas - 08-19-2005 Can't think of a more perfect name for what I think of that style of wine--just add the prefix "under" to the word arm [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img] - AlpineOeno - 08-19-2005 I agree, but i was trying to be sensitive to people who enjoy that style of wine because if that style is to your liking, then it's a great deal. I prefer juice that's a little less rock 'n roll. - Drew - 08-19-2005 I like the style occasionally on it's own but it is a terrible food friendly wine. Drew - AlpineOeno - 08-19-2005 a terrible food pairing wine, but i have found that its a good food ingredient. from the early years of my pallet development, i had a few of these big wines in my cellar, and have found that they work very well as a base for tomato sauce.......Grange over pasta anyone ?

Just think of the fine--almost 3 of them--Provence bottles of wine you can get for $35.00! [This message has been edited by foodie (edited 08-19-2005).] |
