reasons for winemaking 306

Probably not the whole purpose, and I suppose you should define "wasted". I tend to think of "wasted" as falling-down sloppy drunk, and this is certainly not my purpose in drinking alcohol.

I find a good meal preceded by the cold bite of an ice-cold vodka martini to be a great joy. And the same good meal in concert with a fine wine can only enhance the sensual taste experience.

I recently discovered that a glbutt of good port with a rich chocolate dessert does amazing things to the inside of my mouth. Try it sometime. It has to be experienced to be believed. Again, it has to be a very good port.

While the above combination of food and alcohol doesn't leave me "wasted" I have been know to be very happy leaving some restaurants and the confines of my own kitchen and dining room.

Now that I have begun making my own wine I have found that the wine I make is far superior to any that I usually buy. I'm just not rich enough to buy $30-40 bottles of wine to get the same experience I find that I can now make for around $4-5 per bottle.

This wine making is a good thing.
