Port. A nice ruby port is sweet, strong and has an almost syrupy mouthfeel which lingers. It's the perfect dessert wine to pair with fruit and with chocolate.

I can't stand it, but hate white moscato as well.

Have a nice evening. And enjoy your wine!

When I saw a response to my post I expected to find someone who disagreed with one of my political posts.

I live in the Orlando area, am an old guy who does not do Facebook or anything like that. I also work with lots of gay folks, many whom I consider friends. And lots of them frequent the club that was attack.

I am worried about finding I have lost someone I know when I get into work tomorrow.

Reading a post about a finding good wine lightened my heart! Even if I do not think it is good!!!

Have a great evening.

Do not drink it in the company of anyone that you don't want to accidentally have sex with.

For a pretty "big" red, this oddball is not very dry at all...as "sweet" as a real red generally gets. 13.5% alcohol.
