Chef Jim Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 What I recommend is that you go to you local wine shop (make sure it's a good one) and tell them you're looking for something that is similar to Cakebread Chardonnay. Print up the tasting notes from Cakebread's site and show it to them. http://www.cakebread.com/wines/10/release/chardonnay-napa-valley-2014 Or just go with what you know and buy them beer.

The Poojer Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 that's right, we can get wine shipped from the source to PA now, can't we.....we are almost into the 20th century https://m.wine.com/product/cakebread-chardonnay-2014/157130?warehouses=CA&cid=GoogleBase_CSE_157130_Beta&gclid=CL-SytOQ6NACFQiHswodbR8NuA&gclsrc=aw.ds&mode=xfercompleteHave it shipped! problem is PA wine is all state stores, which means state employees, which means they are there for the paycheck, not because they know wine. :-( What I recommend is that you go to you local wine shop (make sure it's a good one) and tell them you're looking for something that is similar to Cakebread Chardonnay.

The Poojer Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 they are wine and liquor stores combined run by the state, wegmans is just getting into wine sales, but its within the past couple weeks so it's still in it's infancy, we have to rely on delaware and new jersey for privatized stores So there aren't any wine shops in PA?

Just Jack Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Wait a second. Poojer has a friend that wants a specific wine. But he can't get the specific one and wants something very similar.

Great state that PA. You have to travel to another state to get a decent bottle of wine? Someone needs to tell PA the 21st century has started and wine is a big thing. Where to you go to get good beer? Oregon? Edited December 13, 2016 by Chef Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 I can get good wine and beer very close to me.
