All things wine and liquor! We will share short videos with wine information, education, buying tips, new product reviews and more. There will also be occasional reviews of new spirits and comments on some of the limited release and hard to find bourbon and whiskey releases.
What about that worm Tim? I have seen those in both Tequila and Mezcal. Is this a novelty, or does placing said worm in bottles serve a purpose? Keep up the videos!
That is a great question. I personally have only ever seen a worm in a very old bottle of Mezcal. I did not see any worms in any bottles when I was down in Tequila. I really should have asked someone down there, but never thought of it. I'll see what I can find out and let you know.
Thank you very much! I'll be switching to some more long format for awhile, but we will be releasing shorts from these videos as well. Look forward to hearing more of what you like and what you don't!
Most of these videos were filmed when distributors came around with open bottles for us to sample at the store to decide if we were going to carry them. That is why my #OneMinuteofWine series kind of dried up in 2020 - the distributors weren't coming around anymore and I couldn't afford to open a new bottle every single day.
Couldn't agree more! I'm only one opinion - wine and liquor are like art - what is worth millions to some people looks like a kindergartner's work to another 🤣. You should definitely not only take my opinion on anything in particular.
I bought 2 bottles of this wine and the cork broke on both bottles, very weak and low quality corks, what worries me is that if the cork is such low quality wouldn’t the grapes and everything in this wine will be just as their corks? Not good
It is estimated that 10% of corks out there are actually bad, so could have been a bad batch you got. That said, Cono Sur Bicicleta is a budget brand so they are not necessarily using the best quality anything, but that is why it is so affordable and it usually delivers decent quality for the price.
From a glass. Just kidding - a very slight chill is usually good for a deep red wine. Not refrigerator cold, but just a few minutes in the freezer is usually good.
I bought a bottle after watching Animals Are Beautiful People. I'll probably never drink it---I just wanted it (I have a small collection of old liquor). That said, the guy who sold it to me said the price has gone way up recently. I dunno what it was before, but I paid $32 for my bottle (NC price).
Have you asked? Sometimes there are supply issues in different states, but sometimes us stores just rotate in different products. If you ask they may get it for you. Or you can order it on our website: www.elmaliquor.com/shop/wine/750ml/orin-swift-machete-red-blend-750ml/
I found this in April 2023 at Fart n Smile😜in the Clearance section for $11.99, I tried it & in my humblest of wine opinion, it rivals Whispering Angel clock'n in @ $24.99🌹🍷
Aquí en Toluca está a la venta y de inmediato me llamó la atención por el reconocimiento pleno del Búffalo (whiskey) en la etiqueta, y sé que se conforma con el barril de bourbon adicionado ó conservado en barrica, así como también la uva Zinfadel, conforma la combinación; exquisita, compre dos botellas en súper Kompras de CU
Do not order directly from Saracini web page. After 6 months and trying to get a response from saracini, I am yet to receive my paid order or any refund for their out of stocks. I have found many other reviews saying the same thing.
Sorry to hear that. I'm not sure what happened with them. We used to order a lot through an importer and sold quite a bit, but then they shifted to selling direct to customers online at much higher prices than we were charging. It's a shame because it was a great product. Hopefully by now you received your wine or refund.
Thanks for the show.. hard to take you serious thou with "Sutter Home ' behind you...Surrond yourself with better wine...u deserve it .. OK now I will watch your video
Haha, I appreciate the comment! We film while the store is open and there are customers shopping sometimes so I try to hide in the back corner where not as many people shop...
