    1. Raise your glass, cheers to good friends virtual or otherwise!

    2. What bottle are you drinking? What prompted you to choose it?

    3. Now that you've tried it, what do you think?

1. Here's to you.

2. I am drinking "Grayson Cellars 2013 Pinor Noir California Lot 5." I decided to buy it because I can't find Irony for the life of me anywhere except one place in PA. It was also highly rated by some organization of wine schnobs - I mean professionals ;) - somewhere. This is how I pick my wines. If someone says it's good well it's probably good right!

3. I have even done the proper thing and let it breathe before drinking it. It smells...darkly fruity. It tastes like there aren't a lot of tannins. Like, it's not bitter. I like it. It's not very sweet, at least not overtly. It's kind of light. So far, I would drink it again. In fact, I have this whole bottle so I suspect I will. Perhaps only tonight though. (Actually, so far, I really like this. I think I'll have to remember it. It was only like $13.)
