Victor, as you can see, we are having a hard time handling your seeingly simple question. Are you referring to alcohol free wine? Are you referring to wine made with fruits other than grapes (yes Foodie we realize that's a non-sequitur)? Are you referring to winelike beverages such as wine coolers? Are you referring to carbonated beverages (called soda in this courtry)? There have been improvements in this area, including some halfway decent white grape sodas recently released.

O.K. Bucko, who deleted my post? I think it only proper to point out to this gentleman that this is the WINE BOARD, commited to WINE-DRINKIN`, Promoting of same, a love of same, and don`t give one holy toledo about subbin` any-thing for IT ! Go the the boards with the word, Temperence, Abstinance, Zero-Tolerence in it for your answers or as stated before MADD, SADD, or some such. They`ll be happy to point out the wages and the subs to you. winoweenie Sorry Bucko, didn`t realize he had posted this inane question not only once, BUT twice on our board. Victor , my answer in both postings stand. WW

Bucko-ole` cock, Did you notice that Victor posted under Wine Subs & under Subs For Wine? Guess he thinks the more time he posts this silly tome, the more answers he`ll get. My original reply was under his original posting, that`s why when this new one popped-up I thunk I`d been edited! winoweenie By the way why is this posting under Best Buys/ Steal Deals? Things like this should definately be under the Novice Thread. WW
