Where I live, there is a wine shop that does a $5.00 tasting everyweek, you get to try 1oz of 6 different wines in the $10.00 to $25.00 a bottle range. For an additional $5.00 you can get half a glass of the weeks "Premium" choice.
Alot of people richer than me bring in their own bottles of really high end stuff, and pass it around. So you don't *have* to buy a bottle to review it, as long as you have all the info on it! 
*Oh, and the wine tasting here is every thurs and friday, 4pm-7p[m, so anyone want to come out to Yuma Az, let me know!

Yes,.. that's exactly what I mean. Like pino nior.. it gives an opportunity to "virtually" taste a lot of pinos together..  Also, we all are at different places in our lives so it will be awesome to see the different brands and prices discussed. Some are Trader Joes 2buck chuck fans.. others are more exotic.. or maybe you'll splurge one week and discover you can spend the extra 3 bucks on the bottom of merlot you've always wanted to try. It's really open. I say we pick "generic" types and we all give our "take" on finding a bottle and talking about them. |
So, what does everyone think of the "Simon" idea?? Babbs??

Joe, sounds good to me, I'm in!
I'd also say, if someone really wanted to go next, just pm the Simon  I'd hate for someone wanting to share to get overlooked, ya know? |

This is going to be fun. And dangerous. My girlfriend doesn't drink wine so any bottle I open is all me.

Lol. Not so much a problem as a risk. I should write my review of the bottle after the first glass is all, before my judgement gets impaired. "Thish ish the BESHTESHT wine EVAR" Hic.
