Pumped? Yes. Anyone else enjoy their cheap wine? I mean shit here in utah you split a 30 rack and pay 10 bucks each to hopefully get wasted, you split a 4l bottle of sangria with someone and you pay 4 bucks less each AND its easy to drink.

I hate cheap wine, but love good wine.  However, the hangovers are killer if you put down too much.

so uh, my grandpa started a winery in the 80's, and now my dad and my grandpa exlusively own the whole operation.  we produce around 30,000 cases of wine each year (1 case = 12 bottles ) and we have around 20 different varieties of wine, several of which are recognized world-class wines.  i don't drink to get wasted, but i do endulge at least once a day for dinner, so i have my share.  That's bitch wine compared to our stuff.  but, uh, there's no shortage of wine at my house, or our winery 2 miles away..

I can't seem to get an acquired taste for wine. I know I prefer white wine. I think it's the fact that it's chilled. I'm not sure. I need to drink more :)

Wine is awesome.  I like cheap wine.  I love good wine.

Franzia is the shit. Boxed wine is so cheap and pretty damn good.

dude you have no idea man, i love myself some Carlo Rossi, my personal fav is the sangria.
heres the trick hold it with you pink and flip it over your shoulder and drink it.  I have made up my own drink called jelly sauce.........
jelly sauce=1 jug of Carlo +two 64 oz of Orange Juice+ some lemons
try it out.
and while we are on the topic of alcohol and hangovers try this one out.
Schnappters Best "Smart Drinking"  = 1/5th of Schnapps Peppermint Schnapps + a 20 oz water bottle= no hangover and good breath for getting some tail.

Gahviously, if you don't pour it in a cup that is how you HAVE to drink it.


As for your drink, whats the point of adding OJ? Just makes you have to drink more liquid....

I really enjoy good wine.  I have not drank carlos rossi since freshmen year of college, but I do remember mixing it with orange juice was very delicious and potent.  I urge everyone to try it.

Wine is good, but the fucking hangovers from it just put it out for me. For heavy drinking, its got to be beer. And for those of you that whine that theres not enough variety or array of tastes, let me introduce you to my markets Belgian section.

You know where you went wrong?  Drinking wine out of a bag.  That's like having a steak made at McDonald's.  You can actually find some pretty good wine for under $15 a bottle, sometimes even under $10.  Just go to a place that has a big variety and they'll usually have a chart of the top 20 or 50, then go from there.

i have wine at dinner with my parents and they have taught me some things.
1. match the color of the meat with the color of the wine.
2. dont drink pink wine with meals (or at all), it means you cant decide between red and white
3. drunk on cheap wine means bad hangover.

and no ice cubes in wine.
it's pretty funny actually, my dad has certain people he'll take out the good wine for if they're over for dinner, but for the people he knows won't appreciate it he will take out some generic wine.

i do it for two main reasons.
1.  Less chance of a hangover because of the because its like half alcohol (which dehydrates you) and half oj (which hydrates you, remember those awesome sunny d commercials?)

2.  The taste is so muffin good.  i use muffin because i gave up cussing for lent.

the only thing i would add would be "so do yourself a favor and roll a joint for the next morning before you go to bed."  otherwise, spot-on.

last year i'd come back after a weekend and find that one of my roomies had one of those in my fridge...i made her take it out, shitty wine is not welcome in my fridge haha (especially red, which you don't even drink cold, she was stupid). i come from a family of major wine snobs...
