Columbia Crest wine is in Ukraine!!!Ok - so the picture is awful - but really you can only expect so much when trying to take a covert picture on a cell phone.
I'm not actually a huge fan of Columbia Crest - It is ok - but not spectacular - but more, I am just proud to have a Walla Walla area wine being sold internationally to the everyday Joe (ok in Ukraine the price is a bit above everyday - but still . . .) And for those of you wondering about the numbers - its NOT dollars - but hreeven (pronounced grieven - like i'm a grieven for my lost dog . . .) At today's exchange rate - that makes the Chardonay a Washington wine bargain at $13 (In the US you can buy it for about 10 - but most of our wines are double that price) and the Shiraz converts to $22. Amazing that all the transport and tax only amount to a $3 per bottle increase.
(ps - sorry to not support the local economy - but when we splurge for wine - we normally go for the $5 bottle of Georgian Alazanskaya Dolina. Depite what you may think of how wine at that price should taste- its really nice.
