    Sparkling wine made in the region of Champagne can be called Champagne. But the point is, it's the same stuff ....

    It's only really the same stuff if made using the methode champagnoise. It involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle. Much better than the other stuff, but you'll rarely find a cheap bottle using that method.

    I had an '04 Groth Cab that was very good today at lunch. Would recomend it though I think it is a mid price range bottle not the 2 buck chuck.

    Bohemian Highway Cabernet Sauvignon

    1.5 L ---> twelve bucks. Lots of dark cherry and chocolate on the nose with a dark scarlet red color in the glass. The cherry and chocolate that was on the nose also exhibited itself on the tongue. Great finish and just the right balance of tannin.

    I love this stuff. Let me tell you. I'm a pretty wet individual. Functional, but wet. Anyhow for twelve dollars a litre and a half you can afford to invite the neighbors over.

    *ps- the sophisticated wine comments were plagiarized from a wine blog located at 365corks.com for the benefit of those of you that actually know something about wine. I just like to get crunked.
