A very cute white/tan Cocker Spaniel puppy joined us this Christmas.
I originally wanted to call him "Wino" but my wife objected to that so I named him "Riesling". Although I'm not much of a white wine drinker, this has always been my favorite white wine.
Shortly afterwards, I was racking some carboys and emptying the sediment into a 5 gallon bucket. I always add a small amount of water to the carboy before emptying so the bucket was about half full and while I was racking another carboy I suddenly heard ... "slurp....slurp...slurp...slurp....".
Yes, that was Riesling enjoying some Italian "Wine"!! Since then he has been on patrol to clean up any and all spilled wine off the garage floor.
I should have insisted on calling him "Wino". As a compromise we gave him a "middle" name of "Wino"!
