I’m throwing my friend a bridal shower in the Cleveland area, and she mentioned she’d love a wine tasting…any suggestions? I’m not from the area at all!

Which of the three for a romantic snack before bed? which would you choose?
Received an offer in the mail from the Ferdinando Giordana company where you pay and get 12 bottles of wine, 10 different italian foods and a 7 piece set of pasta dishes. I would pay plus shipping of . Sounds like a good deal but…… there must be something I’m missing.
And what is its name?
I’ve recently switched over to Ubuntu Linux, and I’m looking for software to help me manage my iPod.
gtkpod seems to work, but it doesn’t have playback. Is there anything that comes near the functionality of iTunes? I don’t want to use WINE because I’ve tried it and I was unsatisfied.
I want to send some wine as holiday gifts to colleagues but I don’t know if it is OK. Please let me know the service through which it can be shipped and what requirements need to be met so that the shipment will be completed. Thanks.

Thanks Cope, Great ideas. I didn’t know there was a China Town in Oakland….Interesting….
I am going to make my own wine label for my Aunt’s Birthday present to put on a wine bottle. I am looking for ideas for a name of the wine and a slogan for the wine. I do not want anything that is offensive or in the meaning of "old" or "over the hill" she is very vein about her age so I want something classy.
Send me your ideas
I’m looking for something more creative then putting her name and birthdate on the label. I want something that does not insinuate that she is "old, vintage" there must be a classier way to go about it. The wine I will be using is white zinfandel. I don’t want to put Geri’s Zinfandel on the label. Come on put ur creative hat and let me know what u come up with.
preferably sweet like a zinfandel and that i can buy on the east coast of south florida
