Not just Adequate, but Perfectly so
Because “it’s the thought that counts” is something only jerks say.
You made your gift-giving list. You done all the research, from phone calls to stalking the family’s Facebook and Twitter accounts for ideas. You’ve even gotten all your shopping done early. Good for you, sport. Way to be proactive this year.
But, let’s be honest. Inevitably, you’re going to walk into the designated family holiday gathering spot and, surprise, surprise, it’s all “Hey, Aunt Brenda didn’t break up with that d-bag, after all” or “Look, Uncle Petey got released from lock-up early on good behavior” or “Can you believe it? Cousin Jimmy woke up from that coma! Isn’t that great?”. And wouldn’t you know it, they have all bought you a gift. Son of a reindeer.
Luckily, with the help of your buddies at Woot.Wine, you’re going to be prepared of this little eventuality with our new Emergency Holiday Provisions wine, Adequate Gift. A sort of sequel to last year’s offering, this wine will act as your go-to gift just in case fate attempts to turn you into a big ole’ Holiday Jerk. This Contra Costa County Red will prove more than Adequate with its rich blend of flavors. The fleshy mouthfeel of the cherry and berry may be just the thing to make Uncle Petey forget you never visited him in the slammer. And, surely, Aunt Brenda’s beau won’t bring up that uppercut you clobbered him with at the family reunion when he gets a mouthful of the subtlety of herbs like sage, rosemary, and thyme.
We’re throwing in five official Wine.Woot gift bags, too, to ease any wrapping dilemmas you might face at that “Holy Crap” moment. Why only five? Well, we figured you’d like to keep a bottle for yourself. It’s the holidays, after all. And once Cousin Jimmy begins to tell the table of the horrendous nightmare world his mind was trapped in while being unconscious for fourteen years, you’re gonna need it.
