Saw the movie Bottle Shock last night with Tisa, and snuck in a fine water bottle full of 2 buck chuck's cabernet from 2005. It was aged perfectly, and tasted amazing, with hints of blackberry and chocolate, and a suitably strong cab finish. Not that I really know that much about wine tasting or being a wine connoisseur, but the movie definitely made me want to be a little more knowledgeable about different tastes of wine. Enjoyed the movie, and I'd definitely recommend it if you're in the mood for a feel-good, go-california listen to the doobie brothers, based-on-a-true-story sort of movie. Great scenery too, reminded me of Sideways. Clearwater would really enjoy it, as would Drew Solitieri, especially after working in Napa.

Guess what, they actually shot the bar scenes in that movie down the street from Bonnie's parents. Dang, so close to Alan Rickman only to not meet him. You know what they say about dreams defered: they make easily quotable poems that i'm not all that crazy about.
Except one thing, i didn't work in napa.
Another thing: i drank some mead the other day after reading Piers Plowman. Piers seemed like more of a beer guy, and i might be, too, but i tried it, so there. Shoot.
