Chukkers Keep Popping Up All Over

Wine bought 12/29/10 at K&L in Hollywood. I kid you not. After Pistol Pete Reiser's story earlier this week, how could I possibly have passed this bottle up?

But is it any good? I admit that I am charmed by the minimalist labeling, though.

@MC:

Is "charmed" really the work of choice here? I'll give you a second chance. How often does one get a do-over?

Intrigued? Hornswoggled? Mildly aroused? Stoked? Gobsmacked?

I'm in a design field, we're allowed to be slightly effete.

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME, DAMMIT?!

Actually, the cognitive dissonance with the fridge avatar made me chuckle.

This is what happens when there's a slow week around here.

How about some Chucker cocktails?

Purple Headed Custard Chucker
Cherry Chucker
Spear Chucker (the only one I might actually try tomorrow night)

This wine is a very good one (also check out the M5 and Uber from Margerum). I sent this on to the winemaker, I think he'll get a kick out of it.

^jmk clearly knows I'm a sucker for umlauts.

Nostradamus said...

I'm bored.

@ Jason

No you didn't.

@MC: I vote Gobsmacked. Good choice. Cheerio. Move along now.

Just imbibed the Chukker over dinner, hanging out with the wife, and xbox. Pretty good blend. I'll buy a couple more bottles. Thanks, Pistol Pete!
