Do you drink Wine when you watch Football?
Well, some of you Nancys obviously do…fess up.






"WFL" Wine Football League will be Revealed on 9-10-12



September 4, 2012- The WFL, Wine Football League will be announced to the public on Monday September 10, 2012 prior to the season-opener double header of Monday Night Football on ESPN.

The Wine Football League or the WFL is not a pro football league that is looking to rival the NFL. It's a creative "Football & Wine" marketing campaign created by The Wine'tastic Mile of Baltimore and Dunkadelic Sports Marketing.

The NFL is composed of 32 teams in 31 U.S. cities. The WFL will give each team a wine themed nickname to help promote the "Football & Wine" culture with the NFL. It's for wine lovers to follow their favorite teams with a wine inspired nickname.

There seems to be a never ending amount of beer commercials during the NFL regular-season and playoffs. Wine is never mentioned, but there are millions of NFL fans who enjoy watching games with a nice Cabernet or Chardonnay says, Derrick E. Vaughan the creator of the WFL.

When you go to a big-time steakhouse or upscale seafood restaurant during games or after games you see the wine drinkers enjoying their wine with a 20 oz. cowboy ribeye or grilled branzino fish, Vaughan continues.

The idea came to Vaughan a sports guru while he was thinking about the 40th Anniversary of the 1972 Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins were the last NFL franchise to go undefeated for an entire season and during the playoffs in 1972.

Chris Berman of ESPN would say each year after the last NFL team would taste defeat the '72 Dolphins are popping the champagne realizing that their record of 17-0 still stands for another year.

I never drink wine ever and I only occasionally drink during Sunday football as I have two fantasy leagues that go out every Monday and new this year on Thursdays,I save most of my drinking for that.

FMB, re: Sauv Blanc I've found I much prefer the old world styles to the new world (but that's the case with just about every varietal for me); by far most of the SBs I see are the New Zealand wines that are just punch you in the mouth with tart fruit and acidity. I like them when I'm in the mood for them or with spicy food and seafood. I tend to prefer, and you might like these better as well, SBs from the Loire Valley. Cooler-climate than the NZ/Chilean/etc. wines, so to me they're much more subtle and balanced. You still get the minerality and a lot of the same fruit profiles just in (IMO) a nicer package.
Thanks for the information. My eldest is nuts about Riesling, so I do keep some around for her occasional visit.

Oh, I've had some Sauvignon Blancs that were pretty decent. Just this last bottle (SIMI, Sonoma) tasted like stinky cheese. I'll try some of those you mention.

Dude if you do,let me know....I made a post in another thread with recommendations of things, but I would dig it up and update it for sure.

There are also micro breweries and great restaurants...

Keep in mind i live in Sonoma county, not napa county...

To me it is way better than Napa for wine, for life...for everything...but if you like Napa wines you can always stay a few days in Napa County and then Stay a few days in Sonoma county...

I would do Sonoma county / Sonoma coast ALL the ****ign way though.

But I am biased.....

Let me know if you do come here though, I will at the very least make sure you go to the coolest spots, don't spend too much etc....

This thread got me thinking about cellaring some wines besides my ports and madeiras. I don't cellar much because I don't have a huge wine fridge... but I just remembered that we bought a new wine fridge a few months ago and we hadn't done anything with the one we replaced (nothing wrong with it, just not big enough). Thinking about bringing it back out for longer-term storage. Damn I wish I had a cellar or basement.
