A $7.00 (Canadian) bottle of Shiraz/Malbec, from Argentina, and it's actually drinkable. FuZion is the name. Big deal you may say ? Yes. To me it's like gas for .25 cents a litre, or a $10.00 phone bill. Maybe Globalization does have its benefits.

Now if some country can come up with the equivalent in a car, or PC. A brand new car for $ 4000.00, a PC for $150.00. A woman who loves zirconia diamonds.....NOT.

A little acidic but other than that, quite good. I'd recommend using it as the second bottle to be opened. Open a Wolf Blass first, after that you're taste buds won't know the difference.

Ummm...how about Herkimer diamonds? I actually prefer a lot of stones to either Zirconia or real diamonds. Jade is one of my faves!

Congrats on the good find, Paws! wine

A trick I learnt from a Spanish wine guy, if the wine is a little acid/tanic stir it with a metal knife, the metal removes some of the tannins, try it.thumbs up

I learned a simular trick from a wine person, just drink it faster, onece the irst bottles gone you wont care about the second, even if it tastes like moss piss or anti freeze.

Avoid Blue Nun, that really is the wine equivalent of acrid moose piss.

Breathing, pulse rate, 90 BPM. Although if I click on your pic., it'll go up to 120 BPM.

How are you ?

It's terrible isn't it.

On a brighter but personally sad note my ex is moving to Ontario with my son so i might well be needing some strong alcohol after i visit them.

I'll bring you something over other than the Blue Nun

Never bought any Argentinian wines before, I'll try it if I can find it here in the middle of nowhere.

Still liking the Aussie wines, although haven't found a really good one for under $10.
