Ok, questions:
1 - I understand making wine at home is fun because you can... but what was the point of this?
2 - Who thought it was a good idea to do this in a public facility? This brings with it extra fines and criminality...
3 - Is wine so expensive that they need to make their own? You can get Winking Owl Cabernet for $3.99 at Trader Joe's.
4 - Do they drink so much of it that they need to make their own?
5 - What did they call it? "Cess Wine" ... "Carrion Wine" ... "Sludge Cabernet?"

I don't know about these guys but making your own wine is like owning a couple of Fieros, you don't need them but you cant help yourself once you get started.
Some of the older generation in my family made wine, it was very good. On the sweet side as it was more of a drink along with food and not something to put you on your ass.
We also have a couple relatives in a northern mountain state that make something that will put you on your ass.

I kinda understand that. My brother got into home brewing and after awhile, couldn't seem to stop. Wine and beer and had accumulated all the equipment for stronger stuff but never did get a still set up. He gave away almost every drop of beer and wine he made. He did bring me some pretty good jalapeno beer one year.
He tried to get me interested in it but I had already quit drinking by then.

It's winter I suppose so they have to find something to replace the summertime ingredients.[This message has been edited by maryjane (edited 12-18-2020).]

Ah yes, Nancy and Lee. Great tune. Here's another one of their fine duets. Weird song, but I like it. Apparently it's about heroin addiction.

There are many who believe that Nancy originally recorded under a ghost name of Suze Jane Hokom.
The reasons given were that Frank S. had a contract with a different production company than Nancy did and it wouldn't have worked well for her to record for another company.
All that is false. Suze Hokom is indeed real and is still active in music today...or was until very recently anyway.
Hazlewood and Hokom did record Summerwine together but it was made famous by his and Nancy's version.
He and Hokom were dating, and she recorded under several different names, including Hilary Hokom.[This message has been edited by maryjane (edited 12-18-2020).]

This is next door to me. I’m not really surprised.
There used to be a lot of meth labs up that way, too. But Vice had a major operation and cleaned it up.
Since then, they are always keeping an eye out for things like that.

Alabama has some weird state package store thing where only the state can sell alcohol. Probably just an easy place to brew up some wine for cheap. Did anyone ask the old guy what’s up?
