Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

I used to accidentally buy some California wine every now and then when not paying attention and grabbing a selection, it was never that good.
Since trump 2.0 now i check everything to make sure it's not American. This isn't really surprising news
California produces some of the best wines in the world. California also produces some of the worst wines in the world.
Both things can be true. California is a big place.
The best wines are wines that almost no one can afford.
I've had quite affordable, very good wines from the Columbia Valley. I have alcohol that's fit to drink, but I just don't much, anymore. I give it to guests and neighbors.
Maybe. I've had a lot of really good wine from California at reasonable prices, though. Also from WA, OR, and even a few from ID.
Looking through this thread, I get the feeling that most of the people commenting just don't like wine. And that's fine. Not everybody has to like everything.
Same! Since about the beginning of the year I always get European wines and Irish whiskey.
It used to be good like 20 years ago I think
At the very least we can assume it was good around the time that one Orson Welles commercial was made since I'm pretty sure he is getting increasingly pissed in-between takes based off the bloopers. Ahhh the French.
I recently bought a Cali red on sale, to cook. It's not fit for it.
Over-oaked wine is bad for cooking, which is exactly what a lot of bad Cali labels do.
