comes up a lot. cosmo the more you can help people the less I have to post, thanks.

I don't know why more people can't take the time to help n00bs out, especially when the question is clearly stated.
Caymus - are you named after the wine? That's a mighty fine wine, I have two bottles we're waiting to open.

Where is that wine from? Is it red or white? Tone Deft if you ever get a chance you should try some of Canada's Niagara region wines they are quite good ...

Ugh *&$%^@!!!, I was thinking of Cyrus by Anderson Valley. A LOT of wines from the Anderson Valley are better than Napa/Sonoma and are always cheaper because they're not selling the napa/sonoma name. It's a red, Bourdeaux blend.
But Caymus is a very good winery, been there a few times.

Cool, I'll take a look out, we're always looking for new wines to check out. We're f-ing spoiled in the bay area with amazing wines cheap and available, great food too.

hey look
i'm in the middle of an awesome session, the creative juices are flowing.
i cant stop to RTFM just now, most people in the world have other jobs where one can not spend enough time in the day to RTFM, I have Live, I love music and when a situation arises I just post my questions on this forum as I create/write, that is my workflow, I apologize you have to answer questions over and over and whatever other annoyance this may cause you, no-one is holding anyone responsible to answer these questions so you can turn the other way if you wish.
Caymus Cabernet is an amazing red wine.

don't worry Caymus, as posts go Cosmo was just talking about posters in general, he wasn't referring to you at all. This does come up a lot, it's just not that well known, it's all good.
Now say thank you to the nice man, shake hands and make up.

Nevermind Caymus lets talk wine... Now you know that they cannot call a wine a Bordeaux unless it is from the Bordeaux region... I beilieve it is a called Metritage... Our local wines are not cheap since the LCBO has a strangle hold on the pricing and distribution of wines and something to do with the free trade act.... Wines that come from Australia are cheaper than local wines at times... Most of the good wineries sell the wine to local restos since they do not have the quantity to have LCBO (Liquor Control Board Ontario) distribution...
My wife, friends, and I just did a self organized wine tour in Niagara and found some new wineries... The best was pulling up to this 1940's bungalow nothing flash house sitting at the kitchen table and drinking some great wine with the owner... By the end of the day we spent $300 on wine... Goodbye cholesterol... PM me with some good Cali picks since I never really drink them... I prefer reds but a nice riesling is nice as well....

Yeah, fuck Ableton, wine is where it's at.
Hmm, cool, I should say 'Bourdeaux style' wine.
Interesting you brought up Meritage, last year at the Anderson Valley winery coincidentally we got to talk to the owner, it was midweek so he was at the counter. I said 'meritage' with a soft G like it was French and he corrected me (we both laughed that we took spanish not french in school), it's literally a combo of the words Merit and Heritage. It's actually a trademarked name made up by the Cosentino winery (we're members there, pretty good, we're more impressed by Anderson Valley)
http://www.cosentinowinery.com/cosentino/index.jspjsp
Meritage is a word used to distinguish wines that are made in the style of Bordeaux but without infringing on that region's legally protected appellation. Winemakers must license the right to use the trademark "Meritage" for their wines from The Meritage Association.

I never knew that.

Wow from tempo change to meritage... Only on the General Forum... Cest Magnifique... I try'd some meritage and it was quite nice... Not sure if your into proseco (cheaper champagne alternative) but proseco with campari is a nice summer drink...

My wife loves prosecco, I prefer it to champagne. When in doubt at a restaurant, blends, meritages and such are easy picks, they're hand crafted beyond just fermentation and barrelling. Especially if you know the winery is good.

I PM'd Caymus to change the thread title to "The Wine Thread" It's the least he/she could do since I bailed them out from god forbid "RTFM"...

we've had more grapes than we know what to do with over the last few years out here... which aussie wines make it over there?
