Most definitely not.
I had an unexpected trip to...the Olympics which of course included the Fraser AND Okanagan Valley wine tour.

My wine touring for the year has met its financial limit. In fact, i won't be attending the Winnipeg Wine Festival in April as usual because of the trip.
I have to bite the bullet at some point, take a breather, and then re-focus my next splurge onto one of three areas:
1) US wines, specifically California for now because there are SO many i could potentially collect. I haven't even scratched the proverbial surface of Cali whereas i'm very versed in Cdn names.
2) Australian wines- i have way too few in the cellar and i'm not sure why, maybe because i drink them alot?
or
3) New Zealand reds. I have had lots of their whites, but have not really ventured anything red and my cellar is devoid of both.

Time to seriously start expanding the horizons beyond Canada.

Aren't you doing Washington state this year?

I can't help but notice that Virginia didn't make the list.

I moved away.

Yes, the world's axis goes in my mouth and out my butt.

Ah, so you're being roasting on a spit by the sun, then? Here, let me marinate you.

If he likes red wines, there's a reason Virginia didn't make the list. ;\)

Oh... Too bad, but I can relate.

No, we went to Wa last fall. I'm planning a trip to Sonoma right now. Probably mid to late May.

They have wine in Virginia?

Indeed. I wouldn't go out of your way to try it. More the opposite.

The whites are pretty good, as I recall.
