  1. It is now 20 years old but I loved The Mole. Netflix is showing now. Group of 10 are working challenges to put money into the pot that only one of them will win. One of them is The Mole and working to sabotage the group on challenges. Each week contestants answer questions about who they think the mole is. Person with least amount of correct answers gets booted off. Anderson Cooper is the host.

  2. If the DRC is the real thing, I'd be interested in buying it if he's trying to sell it.

    Here are the pictures he sent me when he received the bottle.


    Obviously you would have to find someone to authenticate it.


    If you want to PM me an offer, I would be happy to send it over to him. The bottle is in San Antonio.

  3. What you saw a lot this last year in the wine business was that due to COVID putting a severe strain on the restaurant industry, a lot of those wineries that focused most or all of their efforts in the restaurant sector all of a sudden had a large supply of wine with no place for it to go.  There are many wines that wineries would historically say were "restaurant only" and even then, only the top restaurants.  So then a lot of of these wines were all of a sudden being offered to key retailers so that wineries could move through inventory knowing that the next vintage would be released soon.   Wineries were making pitches to Costco that would never allow Costco to sniff their inventory before.  Wine clubs became another great avenue to move inventory, and that usually comes with a more aggressive cost.  Not exactly sure if that is the case with Emmolo Merlot, but $30 seems pretty aggressive from a small family wine shop.  

     

    On another note: 

    I have a friend who frequents Underground Cellar. I am not sure how it all works but my understanding is there are lots you can blindly buy and every once in a while the slip in a rare bottle.  They fucking shipped him a bottle of DRC Richebourg 2016.   Kermit Lynch has it listed for $2400.  He doesn't even know where to start as far as trying to sell it.  

  4. I don't think it is one way or another.  They have Caymus, Conundrum, Mer Solieil etc under their umbrella.   I see the Emmolo Merlot at Total wine for around $55.  Same for HEB.  So if you got it for $30, I think you got a nice deal.

  5. Yeah man. We usually hunker down with a couple of bottles of red wine and laugh our ass off each Friday night and text the other two couples we know that watch it



    Lat- if you haven’t caught any previous seasons, it really is worth watching them as well as this current season. You can watch at same time, no cross over. So far this season of pretty tame compared to some of the earlier ones

  6. You know it. That ass hanging out the shorts was nice. Told the wife I was ordering her some just like that. I feel so bad for Daonte because he wants a piece of that pussy so bad and he ain’t going to get it.

    The little 4’10 spinner seems fun.

    Stan’s gal is looking pretty rough right now. Maybe she can bounce back.
