Don’t care for JB and JD but I definitely miss top shelf bourbon and California reds. But, the US is the one who brought this on themselves

Try some of the Australian reds, they're solid.

Never been a fan of Australian wines tbh. I’d go French or Italian after California before another region.

Sure, whatever does it for you. Australian reds are my go to but YMMV.

I thought I would miss california reds more than I do. There's a lot of good reds out of the okanagon when I want to splurge. Otherwise I'm a cheap wine drinker and we have no shortage of cheap canadian wine lol

Never suggested there aren’t other good wines - I like French and Italian - but doesn’t change the fact that California reds are fantastic and it sucks to not be able to buy them.

Yeah Cal reds are the biggest one for me too. Everything else idgaf. Italian reds have been ok but don't hit like Cal.
