Cat's pee on a gooseberry bush

[ling_dtua_khaao]

Now how often do you get to taste that?

I've got a whole chilled bottle of it in front of me!

Before you leap to any conclusions, it's a white wine, a sauvignon blanc from New Zealand. I couldn't resist buying a bottle because of the name, and because when you purchase a bottle a donation is made to the Ontario branch of the SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals).

And it is true to its name: bouquet with a hint of gooseberry and strong notes reminiscent of month-old half-dried male cat urine sprinkled on your CD rack, couch or other furniture. Every cat lover will go for it I'm sure.

Speaking of wine, or other liquors, with the xmas/new year's party season approaching, any recommendations? Favourites? Good deals? Ghastly bottles?
