Anyone seen this wine made by Messina Hoff. This year I got a bottle that was a rememberance to Bonfire. I wonder if they would start bottling Bonfire Blush again. If things like that start happening, it could get the community back in the Bonfire Spirit.

Im not positive, but I think it's the same wine just with a different name. They donate $.50 for each one sold to the bonfire victims fund. I don't know if its a popularity issue or what, but the tribute to bonfire is abundantly available and Bonfire Blush was kinda hard to get a hold of.

We bought some back in 99. Tried it, and it tasted really crappy like. I haven't tried it since then.

Be careful where you store it. My wife and I have several bottles from 99, 00, etc. Then we learned that unless it's kept cool it eventually turns to vinegar. I've learned it's best just to keep wine in the fridge.

Ooops, I have had mine on a wine rack in the kitchen since I bought it (Not in the frig). Hopefully it is not vinegar.

Only one way to find out I guess.....

I have one from 99-present. Guess I need to take them off the rack and put them in the fridge.

White wines/blushes, for the most part, do not age well. They should be consumed within a couple of years of bottling. Just a little FYI.

All unopened bottles of wine should also be stored on their side to keep the corks hydrated and thus maintain a proper seal, else the possibility of "vinegar" increases.
