More good news for today.

I went to Orlando with my neighbor. We ended up stopping by Fresh Market which is a gourmet grocery store.

They had Banfi!!!

Interesting b/c a Fresh Market just opened up in Columbus. 'bout 35 minutes from me, but may be worth a trip in soon. After all, ya never know when you'll need a good Banfi.

I am still trying to find the smaller bottles since I am the only one that drinks them. Braking open a bottle of Banfi for myself seems a little much, but so be it.

Where can you get Banfi? You state it so matter of factly.

Some night just send the Bud truck over here with a shipment of Banfi in it!

Is this the "Cousin Vinnie"?

 

[kikipug]

Have you checked out "The Elusive Grape" in DeLand... I'll see him tomorrow at my Mainstreet DeLand meeting- I can ask him about mini-banfi's

No, I have not checked him out. Your assistance would be appreciated and rewarded!

Actually it's "Cousin Vino"

Karen & Jim - since you both like Nascar - have you ever checked out the weekly game on the Community Board? We pick who we think the top 5 are going to be. Points are awarded based on actual finish of those drivers. It is all for fun and bragging rights. You should check it out!

No... that would be hubby's Italian family... mine all hail from Spain (though there's some good wine THERE, too!!)

I found one for the Shootout... not sure if that's the same on or not...

I'll check on it tomorrow, and let you know - I think he can order just about anything.

He got me hooked on McMannus lately... as good as Silver Oak, and about $115 less a bottle!!

I HATE when that happens! A REALLY nice bottle of wine, what? You say it cost HOW much???????


Must be that good taste thing we've been struggling with......

I would never actually SPEND THAT much on wine... give me the $12 stuff that tastes the same... I'd rather spend the $ on a cruise. (Granted, I steer clear of screw-tops or wine in a box.)

Know what you mean! We love our wine (almost as much as Jim) but there is a limit as to what the budget can stand. We would rather have a few $10-20 bottles than one $100 bottle.

On the screw tops. gaRry will be sad to hear that.......
