All things blueberry (again)!
Anyone ever tried this wine before? I picked it up at Gates Circle as they were out of the blueberry wine from Niagara Landing. Thinking about popping it open tonight for dessert to finally just try it out.

Any idea where I might find that locally in Buffalo? I haven't tried many ports, but I'm all about anything with blueberry in it!

Let me rephrase that. My fingers auto-corrected "many" from "any" in my head. I haven't tried any ports. I'm all for it, however.

Along with most of Pleasant Valley's line (which includes a delicious, if slightly overpowering, vanilla sherry), it's at Premier in the sherry/cordial/port aisle.
Meads are tasty but not always sweet, though most of the ones you can get in stores are because that's what people expect. Just because it's made of honey doesn't mean it'll be sweet-- but people want it to be, so they make it that way. I've had some wonderful dry meads; generally rather harsh on the first taste, they improve as you drink more, not because they breathe I don't think but more because your mouth gets used to them. Mmm.
I have no blueberry recs but would love to drink more blueberry things, myself!! Mmmm. -
non-alcoholic, but on the blueberry note- I just saw an ad on TV for an Ocean Spray blueberry juice. Not cran-blueberry or anything, just straight blueberry. I can't wait to try it.
If you're a blueberry person and a port person but not a stodgy port traditionalist, I might recommend Pleasant Valley Keuka Blue. It's a port made completely from blueberries, and I like it a lot.
