Thread Name: Lyr Req: Red Mountain Wine
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Red Mountain Wine
@ClaireBear, yep, popular with us Hippies in 60's and 70's because it was CHEAP. Earlier in this thread someone said it was "the best cheap wine in history" - not the stuff I drank! It was rotgut. The brand Red Mountain I mean. Now Red Mountain refers to fine wines from a particular area in Washington state.

I am writing about that era in my "Scattershot Memoir" that will be up on my blog soon, and Red Mountain wine figures in it. I'll come back and post here when I have that segment posted.
