    What's Gnarly Head Cabernet and Old Vine Zin like?

    On sale this week but I have to buy 6 to get the deal, and never tasted it before.

    When you do try it, let us know if the leaves on the label are telling.

    I may not. Reviews say it's fruit forward. I like some oak in my big reds. Leaves or not.

    I can't remember the name now. Bought a bottle of Zin at the liquor store. I like Zin (not white zin, bastardly stuff) and I was looking for something with more of the flavor of the grape. This stuff, store owner recommended, tasted just like the leaves. It's OK. Michael and I trade cigars whenever I come in, which isn't too often these days. It's easy to drink too much if you let it become a habit.

    Whoa, it's like, gnarly, dude.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Looks like 2009 is the vintage in the store with it on sale. After all the discounts and rebate it'll come to $5/bot but I must buy 6.

    Always felt the same about jerking off.

    Goals should not get in the way of drinking.
