@MarkDaSpark@Winedavid49 If it’s the one that I’m a rat for, which isn’t Annie Anne, I can’t wait to see the price. It’s delicious. (teaser) (Loved the mystery referral. LOL)
@MarkDaSpark sorry, i got stuck listening to Jayson Kelce’s retirement speech! great, but took a while.
ok, i have a very big sweet spot for Navarro Vineyards, but from a QPR perspective, this winery (at this deal price!) is the best winery in that area for the money. HANDS down.
@karenhynes@MarkDaSpark@Winedavid49 Sharp as always. I ratted the Zin on a previous offer. Seemed to be the belle of the ball. Haven’t tried any of the others yet.
this series of wines, is at the top of the hill. every time. i believe it’s the lowest price we’ve ever had it here or back in the day. Climb to the top to grab this amazing wine.
@MarkDaSpark I took the night off for my daughter’s wedding in Chicago. Easily the highest end meal I’ve ever eaten (the place is Michelin starred 2011-2023), and service that was beyond impeccable. Sadly, my taste and smell has not yet returned. (Sorry for the blurry image.)
I was hoping Jana & Scott had a Sparkling Rosé, but doesn’t look like it since their sparkling is white. But I did mention the Sparkling in the other three guesses!
It took us over seven months to agree on the name of our daughter, Alaina. Then we liked it so much we decided to name our next baby, which just happened to be a Rosé
King snake, also known as a milk snake or chain snake, is probably one of the most beautiful snakes found on our farms. But that is not where they get the names from. The name ‘king’ comes from their ability to kill and prey on other snakes including the venomous ones, without the venom affecting them. They can eat snakes of the same size and even larger them. They are nonvenomous and that why some people keep them as a pet.
@MarkDaSpark good evening. it’s not what the label states, BUT the QPR on this “classic’” is off the charts. lowest price by far (and yes this has been offered here before).
@MarkDaSpark with due respect to Iron Horse (and some others i may add later) this is the best deal the the best Chardonnay maybe ever. i am adament, ardent and eager!
@MarkDaSpark hi all, another solid showing from this consistently great QPR source. i bet if we could ship to Canada, this right leaning (i think) thought provoking personality would approve.

She has been running some specials the past month+ or so.
She has also been adding medals and ribbons, and selling out of some bottlings via the club.
So, he was born in San Miguel el Grande in Guanajuato, Mexico, knew Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, mayor of Querétaro, Miguel Domínguez, and got support at San Miguel el Grande
Missed connecting those!
Although probably wouldn’t have gotten this, but
Rancho San Miguel Winery in Sonoma.
Clue (#1) for tomorrow’s offer:
Mine are really barking tonight. Time to chillax with a glass of something…perhaps a Rhône-sé?
(Hey, did I just coin a new word?)
I’m heading out to dinner with a long-lost friend. Will supply an additional clue, if needed, later this evening.
Or only Mystery Sparkling Wines offer ? (Multiple wineries, not the single winery implied in my first guesses. Like all Imported Wineries (Aimery, Bruscotto, etc.)
Single like:
Like all Gruet Sparkling.
Or all Iron Horse Sparkling.
(Label created by a well respected wine family in Sonoma, California. The name comes from the three men who crafted the wine; they are from the 3rd and 4th generations of the family.)
The clue should have been last year! The offer is this year!
@MarkDaSpark happy new year!!

@chipgreen @jasisk @rjquillin @Winedavid49 love the bubbly. Not the pink. Oh well - not like I need more wine, especially after berserker day.
@jasisk @klezman @rjquillin @Winedavid49
Yeah, not the Rose I was hoping for.
I’d be tickled pink by a Jana offer & better if mixed with her Sav Blanc. I think my wallet just shook!

good evening. raining like the dickens here. which is also the location of our next offer.
Amazing Pinot’s, first time offerred, post Walt.
@Winedavid49
If not Schug as @msten said, maybe
Foursight Wines (Charles Vineyard)
Or
Papapietro-Perry Winery (Charles Vineyard)
Or even
WALT wines?
@MarkDaSpark @msten @Winedavid49 Unless it’s a Roessler offer, since they sold the brand to WALT. He’s got a new(er) label.
@klezman @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 Roessler Pinot never disappoints. Have purchased directly post WW days.

Something from the Macmurray ranch winery?

@msten yep, My 3 Sons is not the correct show. I like the Robert Young responses much better. Good job.
Maybe something from Robert Young Estate Winery.

@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 we’ve seen bodega rancho before.
@msten @Winedavid49 @karenhynes @CruelMelody
Wasn’t there like a farmstead winery or something? I can’t remember exactly the name
Farmstrong
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark clue?
Spanish varietals in Lodi? yes please.
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 Maybe a newbie with Bokisch Vineyards.

@MarkDaSpark happy sweet 16 night!
this is likely the highest priced offer on this consistent casemates partner, and likely the best discount. just sayin’, don’t shoot me.
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 I’ll bite - Iron Horse or WineSmith?
Messenger? (Don’t shoot the)
@Winedavid49
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark Clue? stay with me on this one.
the opening song of the final episode of Breaking Bad. The town in the title of that song.
@Winedavid49
El Paso Winery in Hudson Valley (NY)??
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49
The Pass Wines
Or
Pass Wines?
Paso Point Syrah
@danandlisa
Might as well go with
Miner or Barrel Burner then
(Miner as in mining drugs and Barrel Burner as in burning in finale.)
@MarkDaSpark They posted it on their FB page as the wine they were selling today. Whoops. If it is not tonight, it will be soon.

@danandlisa @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49
It looks pretty!
@karenhynes @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 It does.
@danandlisa @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 I’m still interested in the clue.
@winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavd49 My guess, according to FB, 2018 Tayson Pierce Rothchild Rosé.

@MarkDaSpark I took the night off for my daughter’s wedding in Chicago. Easily the highest end meal I’ve ever eaten (the place is Michelin starred 2011-2023), and service that was beyond impeccable. Sadly, my taste and smell has not yet returned.
(Sorry for the blurry image.)

@karenhynes @Mark_L @MarkDaSpark damn that sounds amazing.
@karenhynes @Mark_L
Nice rings! Theirs or yours?
@karenhynes @MarkDaSpark Theirs, from a “sneak peek” of some of the photographers’ work.
good evening.
Clue?
Back by popular demand. this fan favorite wine always hits the QPR target!
@Winedavid49
Slingshot?

Well, we had an Offer spill the beans early, and then an obvious clue … time for an Obscure Clue from @Winedavid49?
@Winedavid49
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark getting pulled tonight.
Our first one of these in a while. Aka Syrah mate!
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49
Sounds like an Aussie Shiraz.
Farmer’s Leap? Anderson Hill? Shingleback?
@karenhynes @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 outstanding. You are the GOAT.
Maybe syrahs from those 3 Washington wineries. Canoe ridge and what not
@CruelMelody![:unicorn:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f984.png)
I first read that as Wellington winery
@CruelMelody Possible but unlikely. The “mates” indicates Down Under
@CruelMelody @rjquillin
2nd thought was a “mate” of Syrah, i.e., Grenache or Mourvedre (as from GSM blend). But Zin?
I had seen Messenger, but they were Napa/Sonoma sourced. Not from Australia (forgot they were a husband/wife team that had worked there). Doh!
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark a recent “goto” winery with a penchant for QPR. Don’t ask Y.
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49
Y Rousseau?
@karenhynes @Winedavid49
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark clue? a small estate. just across the famous Dordogne river from the Saint Emilion appellation boundary.
@Winedavid49
Château Haut Jonset
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 Or Château Penin - Vignobles Carteyron or Château Bozelle.
@Mark_L @Winedavid49
Or Château Saint Barbe?
Or possibly Marquis de Bellefont or Château de Candale
@Mark_L @Winedavid49
@Mark_L @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49![:wink:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f609.png)

@chipgreen
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark howdy.
killer offer coming up. makes we want to say Booh ya in the Sahara !
@Winedavid49
Showing my age … Sahara makes me think of “Midnight at the Oasis”.
Midnight Cellars?
Or a dessert wine? Scott Harvey’s new Forté…
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49
Here’s a totally wacky guess (because the clue sent me down a twisted rabbit hole)…Boya Chilean?
@karenhynes @Winedavid49
Not that bad … the Atacama desert is in Chile.
We’ve had:
Elqui Wines
and
Altue from Cremaschi Furlotti Winery
Edit: And that’s my limit of 4!![:zany_face:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f92a.png)

@karenhynes @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 I’m clueless!
@karenhynes @Mark_L @MarkDaSpark second clue. Breeze.
@karenhynes @Mark_L @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49

giddyup!
@Winedavid49 A wild guess: Horse & Plow?
@Mark_L @Winedavid49 good guess. I like it
@Winedavid49
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark clue? plenty of time for mother’s day delivery. first all pink offer if i recall. i’ll toast to that!
@Winedavid49
Tickle Me Pink and Rosé from Jana & Scott Harvey?
BTW, Gruet Mixed Rosé Sparkling offer on Mon, Apr 24th 2023 was all pink. So Gruet possibly?
@Winedavid49
Ooh, ooh, July of 2018 had Oregon and Washington Rosé
Browne, Waterbrook, & Primarius
So a repeat or similar?
Edit (6:43 PDT): Or an All Browne Family offer of Sparkling & Still Rosé?
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 The “toast” clue suggests bubbles.
@Mark_L @Winedavid49
I was hoping Jana & Scott had a Sparkling Rosé, but doesn’t look like it since their sparkling is white. But I did mention the Sparkling in the other three guesses!
Meadowcroft sparkling rose maybe
@CruelMelody maybe iron horse for a Friday offer
@CruelMelody @Winedavid49
Possibly.
Sounds like all pink sparkling though …
Mixed Sparkling Rosé from Portugal?
@CruelMelody @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 iron horse Brut Rose might defeat my buying moratorium.
@CruelMelody @klezman @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49
Yeah according to CT you have been on a moratorium for a whole 12 days lol.

It was a great clue!
A Dog & Pony show isn’t supposed to be big or elaborate.
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark i may be a minority, but i never get tired of this person’s approach, and i particularly never get tired of his wines.
@Winedavid49
Tercero?
Zeppelin (Stillman)?
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 winesmith
@CruelMelody @Winedavid49
Winesmith is way popular.
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 ha so are most of the ones that come back I assume. I think there was mixed reviews on his last offering
@CruelMelody @MarkDaSpark wine smith is still in the penalty box. Maybe summer.
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark. This deal ushers in , how do you say spring in Italian (errr Geyserville?)
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 Prima Materia?

The “Oui! Oui!” is part of the clue.
@winedavid49
so glad to have my neighbor back in the flow. our first white i believe and no not a magnum (yet).
@Winedavid49

@karenhynes @Winedavid49
Must be, no whites from them yet, and I don’t think Ty has whites this year.
@karenhynes @Winedavid49
@WineDavid49
@MarkDaSpark good evening. it’s not what the label states, BUT the QPR on this “classic’” is off the charts. lowest price by far (and yes this has been offered here before).
@Winedavid49
Prohibido?
Cult?
Stoke’s Ghost?
Too many to choose!
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49
Could also be a Pedroncelli Sonoma Classico
We last saw the '20 and the '21 is released with the new label.
@Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark with due respect to Iron Horse (and some others i may add later) this is the best deal the the best Chardonnay maybe ever. i am adament, ardent and eager!
@Winedavid49 Bite your tongue!
Iron Horse Rules!
Effort aka Center of Effort?
St Huberts The Stag?
@MarkDaSpark good call. This is the first some we’ve offered this chard. Hiway 12 deserves a shout out- historically.
FYI , I’m very clear in my convictions.
@Winedavid49 @CruelMelody
Kunde? (Although they had a Chard on Jun 1, 2018)
Chateau St. Jean ?
Thinking actual Highway 12, not the winery.
@Winedavid49
You got some 'splaining to do!
So, a Napa winery and founder was Keenan.
Isn’t Highway 12 in Sonoma?
/giphy head-scratch
![](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==)
@MarkDaSpark “keen” in Keenan.
@Winedavid49
Ok, that’s excellent. But the Hiway 12?
@MarkDaSpark I indicated I’d add other fav chards.
Barefoot
@CruelMelody That would be freighting.![:scream:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f631.png)
@WineDavid49
@MarkDaSpark love this Keenan offer. but we have a big one coming up. though it is a conundrum. but you’ve seen it once before.
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59
Big?..conundrum???
Mystery Magnums??
@karenhynes @Winedavid59
That was one I thought possible.
Stolen Identity? Only up once I think.
And now I have to change most of my Casemates memes to 59!![:laughing:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f606.png)
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59![:face_with_monocle:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f9d0.png)
But, but, but…he’s NOT 59 yet!!!
Is he???
@karenhynes @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59 well done
Rack and Riddle?
@Winedavid59 @Winedavid49
@MarkDaSpark 50? Does he claim all the 2 digit numbers?
@davirom @MarkDaSpark good evening. tough act to follow tonight. but i feel good about this one, i knew that i would.
@davirom @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59 We going back to Browne Family?
@davirom @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59

@davirom @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59

@Winedavid49, @Winedavid59
@Winedavid49, @Winedavid59
@MarkDaSpark hi all, another solid showing from this consistently great QPR source. i bet if we could ship to Canada, this right leaning (i think) thought provoking personality would approve.
@Winedavid49 @Winedavid59
Peterson Winery!
Good thing I checked to see if I needed another reminder!
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 @Winedavid59 ha his PhD thesis is ironically called Potential Psychological Markers for the Predisposition to Alcoholism
@CruelMelody @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 @Winedavid59 this is all quite confusing!
@klezman
What’s confusing?![:zany_face:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f92a.png)

@klezman @MarkDaSpark I was also confused, until I googled the above-mentioned PhD thesis title.

@WCCWineGirl could have been hours ago…
Now would be good.
Have fun
Name of the wine hails from Irish Gaelic word to mean “light” or “brightness .” But oddly enough but the wine hails from France.
@WCCWineGirl
Solas Laurent Miquel?
@WCCWineGirl is it a sweet wine per chance?
@karenhynes Karen, you’re amazing! ding ding ding
@karenhynes @WCCWineGirl
Yeah, many of us are trying to find the wire to WD’s brain she seems to have.
@WCCWineGirl you’re so sweet! I try…
@WCCWineGirl
Here we go… It’s a ____________ from another mother.
@WCCWineGirl
Brother for clue?
Scotto Cellars?
Durigutti?
Buoncristiani?
@WCCWineGirl Hilarious. My b-i-l always refers to me as his brother from another mother.![:laughing:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f606.png)
@WCCWineGirl The was a doozy of a clue. Lab Rat soon to be reporting for duty.
@jmdavidson1 @WCCWineGirl

@WCCWineGirl
@WCCWineGirl @Winedavid49

Grab your spade and wait for it…

@WCCWineGirl
Barrel Burner Chardonnay?
@WCCWineGirl
Does Broken Earth have a Chardonnay?
@WCCWineGirl
Ooh, ooh!
Horse and Plow’s The Gardener Chardonnay?
Nailed it (ok it took 3, but 3rd times the charm!)
@WCCWineGirl, @Winedavid49
Frankly, my ____, I don’t give a damn if it’s another white.
@WCCWineGirl Do we have you gracing us with clues the rest of this week?
St Huberts The Stag Chardonnay?
Buck Shack?
Or did Scott Harvey find more of his Three Stags?
@MarkDaSpark yes, for this week. You’re so close
@WCCWineGirl
Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars?
@WCCWineGirl
Nice one! A brand new winery?
@WCCWineGirl
an enigma on a “G” varietal?
@WCCWineGirl
“An enigma” ???
More like “Enigmas” !!!![:zany_face:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f92a.png)

@MarkDaSpark @WCCWineGirl I dunno… Mystery G varietal wine works nicely.
@klezman @WCCWineGirl
Brown-noser!![:zany_face:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f92a.png)
![:zany_face:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f92a.png)
“Selections” indicate multiple wineries, thus Enigmas. One winery indicates Enigma.
@MarkDaSpark @WCCWineGirl Don’t anger the clue-giver, sparky!![:laughing:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f606.png)

Miner Family The Enigma - Souzao/Tinta Cao/Grenache
would be too easy/obvious
We have Guest Clue Givers on board starting tonight. (you won’t be subject to my crazy clues for a while)
![:wine_glass:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f377.png)

![:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f61c.png)
So, how many offers will we have guests? Through next Friday?
Clue? This weekend is bound to be fun! These varieties are obscure for some but are well known to the Rangers from Randall on down.
@klezman
Fossil Point!?
@klezman
While I wish it was Acquiesce, probably:
Tercero, Qupé, Andrew Murray, or Broken Earth
In terms of my probability of possibility (high to low).
Edit: I thought it might have been Randall of the Power Rangers Dino, thus the Fossil Point.
Then realized it was probably Rhône Rangers and Randall Graham.
@klezman A number of Tercero “coming soon” posts today
@MarkDaSpark maybe if we’re lucky and Sue is not we’ll see some Acquiesce because of the current wine glut. But I’m not holding my breath.
@klezman @MarkDaSpark
She has been running some specials the past month+ or so.
She has also been adding medals and ribbons, and selling out of some bottlings via the club.
@MarkDaSpark @rjquillin always feel free to send me club offer and deal opportunities from her!
@WCCWineGirl
@WCCWineGirl
@MarkDaSpark That should be directed at the Guest Clue Giver, whomever that is.
@jmdavidson1 @MarkDaSpark I’n not sure if @GuestClueGiver is a valid username
.
@jmdavidson1 @Mark_L
I directed it to @WCCWineGirl because she knows who the GuestClueGiver will be.![:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f61c.png)
![:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f61c.png)
@MarkDaSpark And so the big reveal…klezman.
@jmdavidson1 @MarkDaSpark yes, bit that was my two and I’m done! No idea who’s next.
@WCCWineGirl
Is it allowable to throw a guess out before an official clue??
@sosptuba
Sure. But if you’re a labrat for it, you can always give a clue!
Clue! This urban Portland winery sure seems to prefer Washington grapes!
@klezman
Seven Bridges?
@karenhynes @klezman
Gersing Cellars
@WCCWineGirl
@WCCWineGirl
@MarkDaSpark @WCCWineGirl Not from me this time!
@MarkDaSpark WS? He dropped a video two days ago on yt.
@MarkDaSpark @sosptuba
I just saw an email from 4 hours ago asking me to give the clue tonight. Hang on while I try to come up with one…
@MarkDaSpark @sosptuba
It should be a real sweetheart of a deal!
@chipgreen @MarkDaSpark @sosptuba
Jana
@MarkDaSpark @rjquillin @sosptuba
You’re on the right track, kotku!
@MarkDaSpark @rjquillin @sosptuba
Might pair well with pierogies, honey!
@sosptuba
WD came in a while back and said WD wouldn’t be back for a while. I doubt it’s been long enough.
And I’d be stumped too on this one. I might’ve guessed a Mead!![:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f61c.png)
![:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f61c.png)

@chipgreen @rjquillin @sosptuba
Thus, the “honey” reference.
Where is @karenhynes when you need her?![:laughing:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f606.png)
@chipgreen![:laughing:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f606.png)
She dozed off waiting for the clue(s)!
@karenhynes![:smile:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f604.png)
I will be back on Thursday evening. Earlier this time because I know in advance.
@chipgreen @karenhynes
Aha!
@WCCWineGirl, @chipgreen
@chipgreen, @WCCWineGirl
@MarkDaSpark hahahahaha
Clue: if Ignacio Allende was alive today, this would probably be his house wine.
@chipgreen![:face_with_monocle:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f9d0.png)
@chipgreen
I want to say a Criolla Port?
Or
Marqués de Riscal Spanish Rioja?
@MarkDaSpark
I wish it was the Marques de Riscal. Those were really nice.
@chipgreen criollo grande
@chipgreen House of the Dragon wines?
@chipgreen
So, he was born in San Miguel el Grande in Guanajuato, Mexico, knew Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, mayor of Querétaro, Miguel Domínguez, and got support at San Miguel el Grande
Missed connecting those!
Although probably wouldn’t have gotten this, but
Rancho San Miguel Winery in Sonoma.
They changed the name of San Miguel el Grande to San Miguel Allende in his honor.
I’m on deck for the next two offers.
Clue (#1) for tomorrow’s offer:
Mine are really barking tonight. Time to chillax with a glass of something…perhaps a Rhône-sé?
(Hey, did I just coin a new word?)
I’m heading out to dinner with a long-lost friend. Will supply an additional clue, if needed, later this evening.
@karenhynes finally some barefoot. Rose of Grenache of course
@CruelMelody @karenhynes
Or Dog & Pony
@karenhynes Seems to be a rosé.
@davirom @karenhynes
Dog & Pony have a Rosé of Sangiovese & a Rosé of Pinot Noir.
Clue #2![:notes:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f3b6.png)
You’ve been a friend to me
@karenhynes two old dogs

@karenhynes Kelley Fox?
@MarkDaSpark
Your guesses are very colorful tonight!
While the wine(s) may be red, the answer I’m looking for is more blue and, perhaps, a bit green.
@InFrom there are no critters here.
@InFrom @karenhynes good riddle! Maybe if I had heard of this winery

Mystery Bubbly?
From Gruet?
Or IH?
Or another Imported Wines Mystery Offer of Still & Sparkling?
@MarkDaSpark @WCCWineGirl I like that last guess. A mystery bubble offer.
@WCCWineGirl
How did it already get to be Friday!?
@WCCWineGirl
Or only Mystery Sparkling Wines offer ? (Multiple wineries, not the single winery implied in my first guesses. Like all Imported Wineries (Aimery, Bruscotto, etc.)
Single like:![:fingers_crossed:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f91e.png)
Iron Horse Sparkling.
Like all Gruet Sparkling.

Ah, I focused on the wrong part! Should have focused on the route, not the occupation!
Columbus was looking for India and its Spices!
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 @Winedavid59
…and I was focusing on the Silk Road instead of the spices. So close!

Another almost impossible would be Tablas Creek! They just posted about their new boxed wine … “To Infinity (bottling) and Beyond”!!!
Of course, it is WD after all … he does the impossible before Lunch!![:grin:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f601.png)

@Mark_L @Winedavid49
And I would have sworn Robert Craig had an “Infinity” wine, but it was “Affinity”!!!![:zany_face:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f92a.png)

@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid49 There’s (theirs, they’re’s???) also NFINITY Cellars.
@Mark_L @Winedavid49
Thus, the correction. “They are” in … thus “They’re”.
And you do realize that “There’s” is a contraction of “There is”, right?![:rofl:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f923.png)
![:rofl:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f923.png)
And NFINITY Cellars is in LIVERMORE, not Napa!
I award you -10,000 points for grammar and 5,000 points for NFINITY …
Over the years… repeat sounds low a weapon maybe???
@Winedavid49
How about some St. Julian’s for Pew Pew (errrr…Paw Paw)?

Doh! Forgot about the Superhero label of Scott’s!
Sheesh! I thought for sure @Winedavid49 would have posted the clue by now!

Great clue WD!
Clue?
You wouldn’t shake 3 sticks at the wine
Maker of this family winery.
@Winedavid49
Quigley Family Wines?
(Father and 2 sons)
Or …
Three Wine Men
(Label created by a well respected wine family in Sonoma, California. The name comes from the three men who crafted the wine; they are from the 3rd and 4th generations of the family.)
@Winedavid49 Three Sticks Winery is probably too obvious…
@Winedavid49 Maybe something by their former winemaker, Bob Cabral? Looks like he has (or had?) his own label, after leaving Three Sticks.
OK, fine, Bricoleur Vineyards it is.
@InFrom @Winedavid49
Cabral was William Selyem winemaker for many years I guess any of his wines would be very expensive!
@Winedavid49, @Winedavid59

@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59 twisted oak?
@MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59 and if so, I hope we find out why you would say such terrible things!
@CruelMelody @Winedavid59
IIRC, El Jefe was retiring, so possibly new management?
@CruelMelody @MarkDaSpark @Winedavid59 wait, what? He’s retiring? Is Twisted Oak going to be no more? (Not like Jeff makes the wines, mind you…)
