AriTheDog posted:Yeah there was some local "winemaker" operating out of some warehouses around here who sold a wine that he proudly explained was "a dessert wine flavored with McCormick's brand chocolate extract!" It was incredibly terrible, much like his other wines made with tropical fruit sourced from the Oakland night market. There is an old local guy (Paul) here who makes a chocolate orange wine that is wonderful. This is an actual wine and not a flavored abomination. He also makes several other fruit wines that contain whey as well. He is some kind of chemistry genius and is holding his secrets close to his ancient chest and will not tell anyone how he does what he does. His wines are worth every penny and are unique as far as I know. If you are in the Astoria, Oregon area at anytime and enjoy something unique, his winery is well worth a visit. http://www.shallon.com/ He is quite the curmudgeon though...
