My sister told her boyfriend to get me drunk when I came out to visit right after I turned 21. No problem he thought. 4? shots of tequila, 5? carona + live band and jumping around...
I puked all across Las Vegas

I have been drunk several times since then, and have puked half a dozen. Last time I was drunk was Saturday at their wedding, no I did not puke, but one of the girls I was with did.

awwwwwH! sorry I'm fashionably late.

Bruce: you animal! a full glass!

stay away from my cellar

I'm thinking about your headache... that must have been some crappy read wine!.. did it have a cork? a Vintage? a Varietal?

The bad ones ( even in small quantities) will give you a mega headache.

On the other hand some people are just too sensitive to the tannins

Whenever by Florida, stop by , Nebraska Jeff same to you, let's see if we find some good wine that won't make you sick

Lol! It was a brand new bottle and yes, it did have cork. It really did taste shitty though.

Far too bitter for my liking.

It was Jackson-Triggs, Cabernet Merlot (red wine).

"Deep Cherry in colour, the intense blackcurrant and spicy aroma's of Cabernet marry percfectly with the lively plum and blackberry notes of Merlot. "

That's what it says in the bottle. Haven't a clue as to the year, but I'm assuming it's quite new.

Wine Rack - Gift Center
$16 for a double bottle, my guess there is a reason you didn't care for it.
Find a nice Cab or Zin from Napa or Paso Robles CA for $15-25 you should do alright.

Yeah... I suppose that's why it tasted so awful.

Thanks for the tip.

Acutally you might want to try a Riesling from Organ or Washington. A sweet white wine might be the way to start, then move to the reds.
