“My Cousin” wine, however, will continue to be sold in Alabama stores.

I've seen 1000x worse at the local Museum...

I think Alabama might be the most puritan state in the U.S.

I was born and raised in Alabama...this is pretty typical of how the state’s priorities are so out of whack.

I’ve seen this wine bottle at the store and never really even noticed the nymph is naked. Who cares.

In the meantime, Birmingham has turned into a thug-filled crime den too dangerous to visit during most hours. A good chunk of the politicians are under federal indictment and/or are in jail. Jefferson County is broke. The economy is in the tank.

But, hey, let’s focus our efforts on a random $12 bottle of wine.

I live in Alabama, and I love the state; however, it never ceases to amaze me at some of the most ridiculous things that the state's representatives do. The problem is that 50% of the state is composed of Baptist fundamentalists and Pentecostals. This ban is nothing but hypocrisy, purely for show. From my observation, and by the number of illegitimate children we have in this state and the brisk business at the liquor stores, this whole issue demonstrates how hypocritical people can be. I doubt that more than a handful of people are actually offended by this naked nymph. If fact, I have to wonder, if Baptists don't drink, how would they know?

A 2006 Syrah? Gawd! That alone should be sufficient to ban its presence in the country...but I'll take the girl.

"...I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back
As she disappeared, but soon she returned
In her hand was a bottle of wine, in the other, a glass
She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass
And raised it to her lips
And just before she drank it, she said:
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl..."
- Eric Burdon and War, "Spill the Wine"

All this started with 79 year old chairman of the ABC board, Emory Folmar, who as mayor of Montgomery once raided an adult clothing store wearing full police garb, and arresting the old lady running the store. He also defended the cities ban on sex toys on a talk radio show, telling a woman caller to sit on a clothers dryer if she wanted a vibrator. His polical views are to the right of Adolf Hitler, and managed to escape scandal dispite a long term affair with another woman.

I've always had a taste for "Old Frothingslosh Beer!"

I’ve had this wine before. Quite unremarkable, irc.
