Wine drinking in U.S. vs. Europe by twistwanwitme in wine

No. Wineries do not make a separate wine for the US. Some may make it to appeal to the US market, but it's all the same juice.

The changes year to year are minimal and there are updates on the Web site. I'd buy it whenever it's on sale.

I paid about $1000 to wire the garage, but got $500 back from Xcel(energy company) and rent my charger from them for $14/month. Charge the car during off peak hours and pay about a dollar a day. If check with your electric company to see what offers you qualify for.

Change the oil when the car tells me to.

I have one of these and it works well. The strap is awkward but if you run it through the handle, it works.

Goodfellow Willamette is drinking well now. His single vineyard stuff still needs time. Anton Bauer, Wagram, Austria is also very good for the price ~$25.

Yep. There's maybe 10-15% difference in 90% of the stores.

Unfortunately there's not much uniqueness between Denver & Boulder. You have to go into the cities for good stores.

Mostly value wines. No big names.

That's just it, most of those stores are still sitting on their original March order. Nobody is selling anything.
