However, it doesn't work for the Reidel O stemless glasses.

Here's what I use.  Works especially well on the wider Montrachet series.

Works upside down, too.  ;-)

How do you drink out of that thing without spilling?

;oD

I checked that...it's against the law in OK! They're trying to get it changed.

I don't think wines can be shipped into MA, either.

I really like J Lohr out of Paso Robles, its very good. My favorite is still Alexander Valley out of Sonoma.

Whoa!!!.... There are 34 wineries in Oklahoma? I knew about the one near Big Cabin. But never though Oklahoma had 34.... That's amazing (knowing their state laws on alcohol).

Since I'm in North Texas, the closest one on the Oklahoma side is Girls Gone Wine. (I really don't much care for their name, but hey, they didn't ask me....) I'll have to make a motorcycle road trip up there sometime.

I read you personal page on chickens... that's quite a facinating take on chickens as pets. Who'd a thunk?

Make mine Oklahoma wine!

Which one goes best with possum?

[Non-Sequitur]

Make mine Virginia wine!

Sorry, but Missouri Wine beats them all.

For you east and west coast wine aficionados, I'd highly suggest that you try the Midwest wineries some day. Since the varietal grapes don't do well in our climate you're not going to find a Pinot or Cabernet or Chardonnay. But the Norton is an excellent alternative to Cabernet, the Chardonel is similar to the Chardonnay and the Vignole makes a very interesting semi-sweet white, similar to some German Rhine wines.

My understanding is that you drink red wine with possum, white wine with the neighbor's cat...but you drink beer with raccoon.

Ah yes, cat. The other other white meat.
