I have been experimenting with several home recipes. if I drink 3 or 4 glasses of some of the fruit wines, i get a headache the next day that’s worse than a whole bottle of jack daniels.
what is it about homebrew that is so wrong in the chemistry?
I can drink an enormous amount of shots and vodka mixes and feel fine when I go clubbing, but last night I just had 2 glasses of wine while watching a movie at a friends and next thing I know I’m off my face vomiting in the toilet. Why is this?
I get boxes of wine sometimes and am friendly enough to offer her a couple glasses. Well, my mom came to take care of me while i was ill last week and bought ME a new box of wine. Since i was on antibiotics i had to wait until i got well to drink. well, we told my roommate she could have some! All was fine when she had a number of glasses of wine one night, then she had her and her friend fill up huge to-go cups of the wine so that she didn’t have to spend as much on drinks at the club that night. That infuriated me, but I didn’t say anything. Now, last night, she had friends over and took it upon herself to use my wine in her cups instead of beer for at least one round. Once again, I did not say anything, as not to start shit in front of her friends. WHAT SHOULD I DO?!!! any opinions?
rebecca w: we told her she could have some (that night) not the entire existence of the wine box?
It just sucks because i did not want to have to share my wine with her from now on. she’s not even 21 and i like knowing i have wine in the fridge, who knows how much of it she drinks.
My fiance is a ranch hand at a large vineyard and right now they are harvesting the grapes. He drives the tractors and gets hit in the face all day by vines. He doesn’t wear glasses or gloves and now his eyes are really red, swollen and burning. Can this be caused by some type of pesticide on the vines?
A welthy friend and I enjoyed a few glasses of a 93 cabernet which she got from her basement. I just want to know how expensive of a wine was I sipping on. Its an extremely good wine full body and the legs on this wine was about 1/4 in apart

we are making some beautiful baskets with a nice bottle of wine, two glasses, a wine key, and candy for our new neighbors, whom we do not know well yet. are there any protocol or expecations that go with giving a bottle of wine? is this too forward a gift? any advice will be greatly appreciated.
So she just turned 20 and we have ben friends since were kids, but we have gone our seperate ways. We hang around here and there, and still consider eachother good friends. Anyways she just turned 20 buuuuuut I didn’t get her a gift because I didn’t know what to get her. I have a gift for her for next year when she’s 21 but i’m thinking I should just give it to her this year? It’s a wine rack that also holds glasses, it’s an enclosed cabinet that i made from solid mahogony. Should I give it to her this year? or what?

I shared the Bed Bath & Beyond link only because all the types of glasses are listed there for comparison, and include pictures; also because I’m getting married and my question was asked with an eye toward my registry…if I were buying for myself I would certainly find them for less elsewhere. Thanks!
I don’t drink wine myself as I get a headache from the tannins or something like that. But I just got a cabinet with a small wine rack in it, and would like to have a few bottles around to offer glasses to guest (instead of a beer, lol).
I have no clue what I should keep on hand. Can you offer advice on what to chose for a half a dozen bottles? I’d like to keep it under 0 if possible.
Thanks!!
