You men are far too cultured for my humble taste. Gimme a bottle of warm "Night Train" in a plain brown bag, anytime.

Being unaccustomed to all things alcohol, I had to google Night Train. I learned it was discontinued in 2016.
Tell me, does it age well?

I had indeed some REAL wine, an Alsace Pinot Noir 2024. But my wife paid attention to leaving me only half a bottle.

I've seen Alsace pinot noir as pale as some rosés... What's in a name?

Our pinot noir can be pale, though it shouldn't. But, unlike rose "wine", it is vinified like white wine, so it matures in steel vats. Some winegrowers also chose to keep it in oak barrels for some months to 1-2 years. "Barrique" pinot noir can be kept for a very long time, just like bourgogne (same grape), and be as good as a bourgogne. But the traditional Alsatian pinot noir is not, as the Italians would say, "barricato". I do like both methods, they produce different wines.
Switzerland, Italy also make some excellent pinot noir. But no one would speak of a pinot noir as of a rose...
PS: My dislike of rose (yes, I know, no accent!) is rather a dislike of those cheap supermarket roses de Provence, inexpensive to buy, yet a headache guaranty...
PPS: Rose de Tavel is a very good rose in the Euro 10 + price range...Sante!

When I was a teenager, I had some delinquent friends and we would chose not my quality of flavor but flat shaped bottles because it was easier to conceal. Eventually we got old enough to work, but one friend continued hiding flat bottles in his pocket, coat, probably underwear, and eventually he got caught at his job.

I already suspected that you had a criminal past!
"Funny" that in the US, legal drinking age is 21, but gun ownership is legal at age 16.
Killing must be healthier than drinking...
