Grape Days are soon

Been tending a grape vine that I planted, I believe, around 1999 or 2000. Well, no grapes between which had me thinking that perhaps this vine was celibate.

Often wondered how that could be? Was the jinx in play? Sometimes lit seemed that way.

Well, to make a long story, short, because all here have better things to do, rather than read my blog about my grape vine.

Walked out this morning to get the am paper, and what did I see?

Grapes On THE Vine.......

Sometimes it pays to have THE Karma.

Stay tuned for my wine making threads :)

I'm sure there are a lot of fellas in here that can tell you how to properly fondle grapes.

Some dude I don't know harvests grapes. He knows his shit. I frequently go to the corner liquor store and buy a bottle of his stuff.....Goes down smooth.

Blended wines are superior to all others. Oregon wines are inferior to California wines because of all the extra tannins and acidic soils. You fools need to listen up when I start talking about wine, because I really know my stuff.

Now the Pinot Noir is normally grown only on the north side of hills below 3,000 feet. "Pinot Noir" means "black grapes," the rarest and most difficult to grow of all grapes. These grapes are blended with zinfindel grapes for extra body and sweetness.

So, Miles Fester...what kind of food goes well with my favorite wine,a dry reisling?

Uncle Fester · Post by **Uncle Fester** » Wed May 10, 2006 3:32 pm

I recommend brie cheese, sea bass, and a big bag of Funyuns. Use beluga caviar and a 30-pack of Hamm's to round out the meal.

Most guys who list "dry reisling" as their favorite wine, also list "semen" as their favorite dish to have with it.

I hear Dry Reisling serves as a great shampoo for hair plugs.
