I did a WE red blend kit a few months back and I've thought it had a hint of brown as well. Pictures are always so hard to on the www, but I consider mine to be perhaps a different tone of red. I can pour 3 different reds side by side and you can really tell that each has its own color even...

It also ferments very well

We've had 100f temps where I'm at and most of the country my package traveled was very warm as well. It took 3 days for mine to arrive and had it gone 4, I'm not sure it would have been good. I'd gladly pay a bit more for some dry ice packs.

My Barbera kit arrived today. It wasn't cold in the slightest. I wouldn't say it was hot, or even warm. But definitely not cold nor slightly chilled. Room temp. *Edit* and according to Advisory 2 at the top of the list, that should be fine. There is no swelling of the bag and it's cooling now.

I ordered one of the new kits and it'll be here by Friday.

Haha, nope. Never had a chance. It was gone in less than an hour. Says it should arrive by Friday which is fine.

Well crap! So much for them shipping the new pre-orders at the end of the month! Mine just shipped...I hope I'm still home when it gets here.

If asking about the WE Washington Riesling, then yes. It does.

I purchased a new wine bottle opener last night so of course I had to try it out. I opened a bottle of our Washington riesling and I must say, it is tasty. Sweet, but good! I was skeptical at first thinking it wouldn't amount to much, but now I want to leave it alone for a bit knowing that it...

Well, I ended up ordering the Barbera. I figured YOLO. And for $100 you can't go wrong really.

I was thinking about the Bordeaux. I do have plenty of space in my keezer, but I don't want to chance not getting it before I leave or one of my kids not being here should it arrive. I looked at the other new reds also, but honestly I just don't know any of them other than the Bord. Maybe a good...

I want to order the Super Tuscan but I'll be leaving town for a week next Sunday (father's day). Any idea how quickly they are shipping kits out?

I'm also watching Mind Hunters right now for the 3rd time. I hope they bring it back!

I just watched Lupin and really enjoyed it. The Narcos series is great. Dead to me is hilarious and really good. And my shameful admit is just finishing Queen of the South. I'll watch the final season of that once it streams complete.

Glad I didn't pay more than $32 for this. Even though Suntory owns Jim Beam, I still thought the collab behind this sounded pretty cool and interesting. I like Beam and Suntory whiskies both. This is a bit of a disappointment and falls short for me.
