Into wine for now.

Well...you guessed it right, I have a new hobby and it is wine. Or drinking and buying nice wine both red and white. Got that when someone contacted me from a local wine reseller representing direct imported speciality Australian wine. And they sell by the cases...meaning by the dozen hehehe with price ranging from 30+ to 1000+. I bought 1 case for about 500+ for future use hehehe. Mixed 6 red and white each to make up the dozen....plus free home delivery

Lately I have been trying some of the wines I have bought before but don't have the time or opportunity to sit down to enjoy. I have at least 20 bottles sitting in my cupboard. So on Wednesday I had a BBQ in my living with my wife and kid and I open 1 bottle of white - chardonnay to go with the BBQ. And it was good. Cost me about maybe 30+ which I bought from Cold Storage.

To be honest....I have total zero knowledge about wine or wine drinking. And the good part of buying thru the direct importer is that they have some wine experts to call you and at the same time educated you on wine and to match your taste to what they will offer. Usually the spirit content for these wines range from 12.5% to 18% and if taken slowly with good food and company then it is heaven. Cheers!!! man.

as usual....wife made noise with the wine too for buying one case instead of 1 bottle or two.

but then....since when do I do things by 1 at a time or slowly.

did some reseach into wines and most good wines will cost about
S$20+ a bottle onwards.

anything less will not be good so said the wine experts. anyway for now since I have stopped playing shares and buying silly stuffs from ebay....I choose to try this.
