I have found myself drawn more and more towards port and sherry and the like. It really is a nice way to end a meal.

Indeed, I think some Tawnys are especially good value in this regard. Yalumba Galway Pipe has been a longtime affordable favorite.
Too many watches, not enough wrists.

Yeah some of those Belgian style beers are way too fizzy
Oh wait that's champers lol. The cap made it look like beer. Champers can't be too fizzy!

We have been to this winery before. They had issues with corks not holding, so they went with the cap. That bubbly!
