A new idea on an old item: mini bottles

[rshosted]

I have an idea. I would like to see George carry Minibottles. That would provide an easy way to sample a small amount of wine without opening whole bottle. And I was thinking it could be a little easier to ship them to other members of the forum for tasting. and feedback.

Who knows, if we find a few people with a very discriminative pallet they could start to grade our wines similar to how professional wineries have their wines graded. It would be a lot easier if we could ship a mini bottle in a small padded envelope.

Are those the 187's?

I would guess they are around 3 oz. The kind they serve on airplanes.

Shooters, okay, I dont know if that would satisfy my taste buds if someone sent me a good wine.

true true, but how much easier would that be to ship. I have about 8-9 wines bottled right now. Shipping that much is over a hundred bucks.

I hear you there as I have to ship out a couple of bottles myself this week to someone here.

What about a compromise? Half bottles...375mL?
