Give away.. but not an easy one
I shipped 2 of something to the McAllen GTG.. all you have to is guess the Vineyard, type of wine and years. It's not hard if you seen me post my favorite wines..

Winner gets a bottle sent of my choice to them no winners I get to drink it

No, that's from Mexico not California. And those aren't wines. That pic was to get everyone's mouth watering. I really like that Tequila

1 person guessed 1 bottle correctly though

Not the same vintage. Both are different years

I'll try!
Joseph Phelps Insignia seems to be a favorite of yours. Maybe a 2012!

Enjoy the GTG!

Dang. Well, very generous of you to put on this very challenging giveaway.

Best of luck to everyone. I may throw out a Hail Mary later just for grins.

you guys that are in the wine thread would not be good sommelier. Not knowing your regular customers drinks. You'd be fired and I'm shocked some of you couldn't guess my favorite wines. Thread over . 12 hours it's over..

Really Nice wine but no. The 2002 Insignia was 2005 wine of the year though
