Breaking News!!!

Wino of the Week!

From the Don't Try This at Home department, we bring you this week's Wino of the Week feature...

A South Dakota woman recently tried to break WinoBob's Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) record. (Again, don't try this at home. WinoBob is a trained professional with a bionic liver. DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!) Back in December, Marguerite Engle was arrested for driving while intoxicated in Sturgis, SD. Ms. Engle's BAC was measured at 0.708, almost nine times the legal limit. Oh yeah, she was found passed out behind the wheel. Of a stolen van. With drugs in the vehicle...

Now we can all clearly see the amateur mistakes that Marguerite made in her quest for Wino gold. First, if you are going for the record, you never do it when you need to drive somewhere. Second, if you need to drive somewhere, make sure you have a vehicle available, preferably one that you own. And third, just say "No" to drugs. Any experienced wino knows these rules.

While Marguerite's BAC clocked in at 0.709 (that's .709%), she was no where near the actual record. WinoBob holds the world record at 97.5 (that's 97.5%) which he achieved at CabFest II just minutes before sinking slowly into the WinoJohn sectional couch. WinoBob also holds the Olympic record at 93.2% which he achieved at the '82 WinOlympics in Montreal.

For the record, Marguerite was arrested again a few weeks later with a BAC of more than 3 1/2 times the legal limit. You have to give her credit for trying...

NEW! Winery of the Month

Winostuff would like to start of 2010 by naming Rodney Strong Vineyards the Winery of the ~~Decade~~, ~~Semi-decade~~, ~~Year~~, ~~Quarter~~, Month. Early in my value wine-buying career, I was impressed with Rodney’s cabernet sauvignon. As with everything else, it is no longer the great buy at a price of $10.99. They are named this month (and I do mean 30 days) for their participation in the Meritage Association and for their Symmetry Red Meritage.

“Symmetry captures the essence of the Alexander Valley. With 40 years experience growing classic French grape varieties here, we select our best cabernet sauvignon, merlot, and other traditional Bordeaux grapes from the hills that overlook the valley, where well-drained rocky soils combine with warm, sunny days and cool nights to provide ideal growing conditions.”

Congratulations RS, keep up the good work.

New Feature!
WinoBabe of the Month!

As you know, we welcome suggestions for our most coveted award, WinoBabe of the Month. This month, we recognize a woman who must have tremendous standing in the wine industry. We don't know her name but she was nominated by our good friend, BigBob Ferdon. BigBob, himself, is some kind of industry big wig so a nominee from BB must have some real clout in the biz.

Personally, I find something very disturbing about this woman. I can't quite put my finger on it... But, if BigBob says she is worthy of WinoBabe of the Month honors, that's good enough for us!

BigBob's WBotM nominee...

Please join us in congratulating whoever she is... WinoStuff's WinoBabe of the Month for January!
