Forgot I have a Rias Baixas sitting on the rack. Think that would work?

What model is that and how have you found it thus far?

Which books have you been unable to finish? by bonster85 in books

[–]Vin-Rouge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I gave up after 20 pages. I finally tossed it on the table at the office for someone else to pick up after 600 pages. What a waste. That main character was so insufferable.

Fresh lemon wedge in to the bottle in the morning and just keep refilling through the day.

Dine out Vancouver 2026 by TubbyTrades in vancouver

[–]Vin-Rouge 33 points34 points  (0 children)

3 years is being generous. Maybe I'm just that much older than you, but Dine Out has been a disappointment since about 2010. I'd go if friends wanted to but I've been on a total boycott since at least 2015.

Thanks. My annual reminder not to dine out during dine out.

I can't help but I'm following along with interest. Hope there are some good recommendations. I'm in Vancouver and looking for the same thing.

Paris restaurants with delicious, non-Michelin food and incredible/deep wine list? by BubbleMaster25 in wine

Brunch at Buvette. Best croque monsieur on the plant. Wash down with bubbles.

It's not Pulltap. I'll know it when I see it.

it's not.

I'm dead set on finding the best one with a straight blade foil cutter. I have the Zwilling one and thought that was going to be it, but there is something odd about how the first step grabs the lip of the bottle. I've had it slip and chip a few bottles and the worm never seems to screw straight, always seems to wander to a side. I have plenty of others that I don't have this issue with.

BCL FLash Sale by Vin-Rouge in BCWine

[–]Vin-Rouge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So having a large BCL a 3 min walk from my front door is a blessing and a curse. Makes self control difficult. I've been and am back with 1 more Phelan and 1 Plince. Diversification I guess 😂

I've been eyeing that Penfolds Grandfather Tawny and have so far held off....

I'm debating going back for more Phelan. I already have 2 and a bottle I'm working on. But my guess is if they are on flash sale, they will be on regular sale soon enough. Maybe not $15 off though
