Move Over Andrew Firestone.....

The Shubzda Family is jumping on the culture train!  Instead of chugging cans of beer wrapped in a coozi, we are sipping fine wine and rating those we deem the best.  We even allowed the Bergeson's to tap into our Sunday afternoon event and introduced a new flavor this week...
the PINOT NOIR.
You must realize that we don't just let anybody partake in this event.  You have to have your wine tasting license and be proven a connoisseur of great flavors. 
We lined up the bottles, placed them in numbered brown bags and proceeded to taste!
There are rules you know.
*A professionally drawn chart has to be used.
*Wine should be cool, not cold.
*All glasses odor free, no dishwasher residue.
*Fill wine glass 1/4 full.
*Observe visually on a white cloth to note color and clarity (think we missed this step...but they did swirl to look for legs!)
*Sniff and then clear nose for 30 seconds before tasting.
*Sip into mouth and swish around palate...don't swallow, spit it out....AH, NO!!!...not a spitter in the crowd!  You think this family spits out liquor??!!!
And the clear winner was....
DeLoach PINOT NOIR!
Chosen by the professionals.

Like I said....move over Andrew Firestone..our own vineyard is next!
