 Yes he did get his answer but all he said was a thank you in SMS spelling  ;D I guess he is expecting us to be here to help him. Isn't it our mission anyway?  ;D
 I am was born in Bordeaux, where the best red wine was made. That's what you want to receive not the crappy red one from Alsace :D

 Yes Napa is a good wine and that's why I said Bordeaux used to be the best one. California, and other places are making wines with the same or better quality than the French ones. By the way I don't really taste any difference, I'd rather drink a beer than wine.  ;D

How about drinking both at the same time?   I love the Chianti and with a beer chaser.  I used to love bourbon with a beer chaser, but my system can't handle that anymore. I spent 9 years near the Mosel Valley in Germany and watched those grapes grow to maturity, and visited several of the Mosel valley vineyards and saw how the Germans made wine.  I played tuba in the local German band that played for those wine festivals.

As quoted in all the 'Lethal Weapon' movies - 'I getting to old for this shit' - so I use burbon, wine, gin, vermouth, beer and ale in cooking - in my in-between times playing around with my toys in the garage. Steak marinated in ale while I was grinding off the choke heater fitting on a right hand exhaust manifold to install a new one. (See, on topic.)

Beef marinated in beer is super tender.  Beef marinated in wine is tasty.  Beef marinated in wine and beer is the best of both worlds.   :o

Yeah, I can see how Dr. Pepper or Coke could have enough acidity to break down the fats and gristle in meats.  Doesn't sound too bad. They also eat the acid off of battery terminals.   :o  I was in the bordeaux and the champagne regions of  France on several occacions.  The Bordeaux region makes the best red grapes, while the Champagne region makes the best whites.  The Alsace region is known for their pottery, but they also make a great tasting table red.  So, Thierry, don't flip your nose up to red wines from the Alsace region.    ;D

 They make a very good dry white wine in Alsace but their red one is like you say a table wine. I am not crazy about wine but I can't drink any of any cheap table wines.
It might be OK to drink it in Alsace but in Texas you can find a wine from California for much cheaper and with a better taste. ;D
 Talking about cooking with wine, if you never tried the "Coq au vin" you should. I love it. Here is a page where you can find a recipe. They are saying to use chicken but the real translation of coq is rooster.

 We are getting far from the original topic but if there is people looking for informations about carburator tubes, the problem is solved and everything is in the first page  ;D

Thanks for the testimonial on California wine. To keep this topic on track, I always drink a glass of wine after working on my car's carburetor. Another cooking trick it to marinate steaks in fresh squuzed lemon juice, which I pick off my tree in the back yard. And 'Coq au vin' is one of the best things to come from France.

Although not large vineyards, there are many small ones right here near my home in central Texas.  The wine is good, just not world renown.  There is one large vineyard at Fort Stockton that sells a ton of wine.  The name is St. Genieve.  Purty good stuff.
