OMG
BWAHAHAHA !!!!
Yes, you would be correct. The nicest people run the place. They even let you taste before you buy. I finally found it locally when we lived in Miss. The laws don’t permit you to order it in state.
Some of the best wine at good prices.
Is that wine 3,000 times better than a $10 bottle of wine? No way.
Oh, yeah. I’ve had it. We spent 17 years in Vicksburg. Everybody there goes over the River to the Chevron station in Delta to buy booze ‘cause the taxes are so much lower.
I’m in the market for a new Merlot to try. The more recent vint of Blackstone just hasn’t live up to the earlier years I’ve had. Ant suggestions? ... I’ve already found the finest Ruby Port, but can no longer get it back here in East Tennessee ... Whidby’s!
I was on the Gulf Coast for 6 years, 5 near Jackson.
I used to buy lottery tickets in the Delta. :)
And yes, the taxes on beer, liquor and wine were high. I used to get a kick out of the liquor stores being called the Wine and Spirit Store. Over here you can buy wine at Walmart. WOO HOO.
I found a bottle of Moet & Chandon for 7.00 in a small convenience store next to a restaraunt. After I bought it I asked if they had any more and he said no they had just found the bottle on a shelf and put the 7.00 on it not knowing what to charge. It was most excellent. Best I’ve ever had.
That’s why it’s just for gargling....too expensive to drink.
Well, I can see how it could happen, but, if I had any financial interest in this place, I would be livid.
Actually, it was brilliance......the wine wasn't worth $30,000 when it went missing..........That's todays price.
