Back in the day we used to drink Popov vodka chased with Mad Dog. Eyeless in 30 minutes.
Just leave the price tag on. Or taste it, and if it is bitter and musty, it must be the good stuff. If it tastes good, its probably offensively cheap.

If you really want to get rid of wine snobs, just a teaspoon of sugar to your wine after you get a glass. Or if really desperate, mix it with a soft drink.
Anyone who likes wine will plan the meal to the bottle.
So, if you spend between $20 and $30 for a bottle your recipient will be well pleased.
I need to try that. I have some lib relatives who wax on and on about the wonders of their listerine tasting swill. A pair of them actually brought back a bunch of bottles from Italy and had a “wine tasting” party. The stuff my dentist gave me to gargle after a bone graft tasted better.
Must be a bunch of Yankees around here.
Tried sugar, didn’t work. Snobs talk dry but they drink sweet.
Chickensoup wants a couple of bottles of Bomore’s 12 this year.
wine celler is stocked.
You made me laugh out loud. Now I’m going to add a few more ice cubes and enough merlot to bring back that pigeon’s blood color to my kickapoo joy juice.

Interestingly flanked by Cisco and Night Train, both NY State wines. From Canandaigua Wine/Constellation Brands, started by Marvin Sands. Son of less successful vintner Mordecai E. Sands creator of now defunct King Solomon kosher wine, an unsuccessful MD competitor. I haven’t had MD in years but at one time it was the only Kosher wine easily available. New York ex city is an interesting state.
Lol!!!
We have a vintage bottle of that!
Nah.
Just give’m a gift card to Sam’s Warehouse. Sam’s has a great wine selection...especially the box wines. Except they were out of white Zinfandel again this week. What’up wit dat?
Find out what kind of box wine Ginsburg used to swill .... can’t go wrong if it’s for a liberal.
Fred also liked to mix up a little Ripple and creme de menthe concoction he called Cripple!

IF I were to wish to buy wine for someone, I would seriously consider a gift card-—let them buy what they wish to have.
