I'm a pretty big fan too. Black Forest is pretty much a regular around our place. |

Everyone bring a bottle of their favorite wine. I know the winery down here gets their grapes from the finger lakes region. So the wine will be relavent. I need to remember to bring a wine bottle openner. |

I'd bring you some but...... mpm wrote: i was thinking the same thing. we should all just be wine snobs this weekend. Sorry, but I can't do it. I'm just not that much of a 'whiner' or is that 'wino'?
I wish I could find this one... 
Wegmans had it for two weeks. Drank a six pack of it and went back for more......and never saw it again. |

Stop 2: Knapp Winery Cocktail of the week: Cherry Avinac Cocktail Stop 4: Lucas Winery - The oldest winery on the lake Silver Level Captain?s Table Annual Celebration Weekend Looks to be a awesome weekend. |

Jason...I've checked Wegmans, and they did not have it. Swedish Hill is one of my favorites...I love their Svenska Red. j. plate wrote: Sorry, but I can't do it.

That is why they offer wine tastings. Micah, I am assuming they charge for tastings or wine glasses to use for tastings? |

I've never seen the Wegman's down here have the lager. They usually only have the india pale ale and black and tan when I'm in there. I always bring some lager back down each time I'm up visiting my parents. If you want some Micah let me know and I can grab you a case. |

I have been to places that charge you for a glass typically a few dollars, but then you use that for the tastings and you keep the glass. |
