Barefoot Burn-Out

How long does it take for one to burn on a favorite, everyday wine?

About a year.

We love Barefoot wines, especially the pinot grigio. The price point is right. It's a perfect everyday wine but then something happened. We took a vacation back home to Florida. We got sick with an upper respiratory infection that left us thinking everything tasted funny.

We continued our vacation with our last stop on St. Augustine. We tried a few new wines and made our best attempt to enjoy the remaining days in Florida funny taste notwithstanding. It didn't work so well.

We returned home after a 16 hour uneventful drive. There was plenty Barefoot waiting for us to unwind, but we just couldn't enjoy it like before.

I was wondering "how could I be sure it was the sickness affecting me?" But the following two weekends Barefoot just didn't hold it's allure.

Now the quest begins to find a replacement.
