Raves......

Drew may have heard of this place, since they say they are based in Maryland. A new wine shop opened up here in Virginia Beach by the name of TOTAL WINE AND MORE. I bought the following:

1997 Cline Cotes d'Oakley at $6.99

1999 Ca del Sol Big House Red at $8.99

1999 Jaboulet Parallel 45 at $7.99

1998 J. Vidal Fleury Cotes du Ventoux at $7.99

1998 J. Vidal Fluery Cotes du Rhone Villages at $10.99

These prices are 10 to 20 percent less than what other shops in the area were charging.

What a relief.......


RANTS:

The wife and I went out to a local spot for our 24th Anniversary dinner. We had some wonderful food at reasonable prices ------ good QPR for the food. However.........

BIG HOWEVER.......


We had three glasses of Louis Jadot Beaujolais. Two for me, one for the wife.

The charge for the wine was $18.00 ($6.00 per glass). That is obsurd.

Damn, a bottle of the stuff retails for about $8.99 around here. Wholesale has got to be less than that.

What nerve. I bought two bottles of the stuff for them with three glasses. Trust me, I will be stopping by to complain.

I did not complain that same evening because I did not want to disturb our evening out........
