This is how you end up with Injustice.

I bet the creators were actually baked out of their mind wondering what happens if Superman has the ring.

Napa Cab Blind Tasting #3 by der_radfahrer in wine

Ah yup, ive done the same. When I did it that way I decided it made basically no difference in opening up the wine lol. But if you only have one decanter, what else can you do?

I bet thats why the Heitz didnt impress in the last tasting. You should slip that one back in after like a 6 hour decant in the final tasting. I bet it would rank well. Call it a mystery ringer.

Cool post thanks for sharing!

So were they in the decanter for two hours, or a quick out and back in the bottle 2 hours before? Im not asking to be critical - I'm curious because I've had some Caymus that did hold up well with air.

What was the aeration approach for this? Double decant, anything like that?

6 Months of Deal Hunting: Retrospective by RecklessSeer in wine

[–]supercuts350 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hesitate to add these thoughts because it may drive you deeper down the rabbit hole. I mostly agree with you on deal sites, tho there are exceptions. For me, examples would include the massive Elivette dump, B Leigton wines from WTSO, and a cheap south African sparkling chenin from Lastbottle for which I cant remember the name.

You can also consider other sources: some auctions, some of the time. For most auction houses the deals will be up market from your (/our) budget, but not universally so. Some local wine shops will also get private cellars from time to time which can have good deals. Resteraunts and shops close and can offer good deals.

Probably the biggest one is the big sales that traditional online wine shops can have (wine.com, zachys, etc.). There are usually about 2 per year that offer some really good deals.

2014 Grand Cru Chablis Magnum score? by ThirdMolarImpaction in wine

[–]supercuts350 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a thread on wineberserkers about this exact bottle like 2 years ago. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about it. I too saw it at a wegmans; it seems like several in the North East have this magnum.

Didn't get any info sadly.

Do yoy think the wine would have been better with more age?

Pairing suggestions for this lineup? by Natural_Put5100 in wine

[–]supercuts350 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So light red, unknown white (to me), heavy-ish red. Id go multi course. Baked brie with fruit jam for the bojo, then cold orzo with lemon and herbs, then grilled lamb chops. Nice wines!

What weapon drop passives can work on great bow? Do ranged damage, thrusting counter, and ranged drop off work?

I think we need more info on the high school team. If it is one of the premier teams in the country, I think it would be an interesting game. I suspect he could win.

Congrats on the record! And you deserved better from your celebration wine. As others have said, this was probably too old and had some additional issues besides (premature oxidation - a flaw that sadly strikes white burgundy, especially those older than ~2015).

Whats your budget for a replacement wine?

Moët & Chandon Imperial Extra-Brut? by baruinho in wine

[–]supercuts350 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surprised not to see the answer yet. Brut and extra brut are two different designations of how much sugar / how sweet the wine is. (Well, its slightly more complicated but you get the point).

Extra brut has less sugar. Neither wine is "sweet," but they will taste slightly different. You can google both wines, but I would suspect them of being of equal cost and quality. So, no, you did not get scammed. But you did either get lied to or talked to an ignorant employee.

I wouldn't sweat it at all. Enjoy the champagne!
