Wine, wine, and more wine....


Got your attention didn't I? I am on a wine kick recently.  I discovered some new yummy wine that I am hooked on.  Normally I am a sweet wine drinker, mostly German white ones.  So, I've been on a hunt for red wines that I can actually swallow.  Most just haven't been to my liking.  I found that I really like the "muscadine" wines.  Now, I realized these are hard to find so I've had to order them online from the winery themselves.  I did that and had a few sent to the house to try different ones and I'm hooked.

On our trip to Savannah Georgia I happened on a wine store downtown.  I went in a low and behold the wines I love were right in front of me!  I was EXTREMELY excited.  I think I drove the girls nuts talking about going to the winery and wine store.  There was a really sweet man there that was telling me about all the wines. I tried a bunch and even found some Peach Wine that was SOOOOO yummy. I decided I needed a picture of the bottles because I know I've never had that many bottles of alcohol in my house at one time!  I had to preserve this moment in time!

I decided to use the photo in a layout for Challenge Masters.  This was for a "Scraplift" challenge. When I started this I really wasn't thrilled with it but I came to love it by the time I was done.  I think it may be because of the little sticker phrases by the title!  Click on the layout to read them....they make me laugh!

  2. so funny about unique tastes...when I went to FL this summer, we went to a vineyard and I didn't like the wines because they were-you guessed it-MUSCADINE...I did fall in love with their blueberry wine @ another vineyard though! Brought a case home and and down to my last bottle :( Love that you found it locally-great LO for our PI gig!

  4. That is so great. I am a sweet wine drinker too. I can't drink any reds. Honestly, I prefer dessert wines to all others. Whenever we go to wineries for tasting I have learned to tell the people that I can't drink reds, and they just load me up with sweet wines.
