Wine Country

Never been to Tuscany But when it comes to wine, Napa and Sonoma As a substitute are fine. Even on a rainy day, The rows of endless vines, Combined with endless hills Create magnificent designs. At every winery, you sip And sample, sniff and taste. What you don't like, you simply toss - A necessary waste. I wonder what they do with all Those rejects in that bucket. Of course, they say - end of the day They take that wine and chuck it. But maybe when the tourists leave, They bottle what was tossed And sell it as a "special blend" At some expensive cost. So think of that when next you sip And when those thoughts appear, Just follow my example - say, "I think I'll have a beer!"
