The Drome

Chemung announces Whine and Cheese night this Friday. Fans 21 years and older, that bring a pound of cheese, will get to share it with their favorite driver at intermission. The Whine will be provided by select competitors in the Super Stock division! All leftover cheese will be donated to the Chemung County Food Bank after the race. Bring your favorite cheese and sample a couple of the Super Stock drivers’ favorite whines, including:

From FC3 Whinery:

Backmarker Blend

This Whine is made from an age old recipe passed down from generation to generation. A blend of Old Sour Grapes, New Sour Grapes, with a hint of Viagra.
The sour grapes are processed by repeated crushing them between other competitors’ cars until they are pulverized. The Viagra helps the whine “stand up” on the palette.

Review: This whine can’t decide whether the old grapes or new grapes should dominate. Initially, it is bold and daring, with neither dominating. The old sour grapes end up with the stronger finish, with the new sour grapes lagging behind.

Great for date night!!!


Cheese pairing: Dragons Breath Blue Cheese.


From NRR Whinery:

Crybaby Chardonnay


This whine feels like it should be the winner at every competition.
Made from Sour Grapes, Crocodile Tears, and Enfamil (hence its name). The grapes are purposely selected so only 71 are used per bottle. In a special process, the 71 grapes are crushed against the inside retaining wall. Next, the grapes are backed over repeated until they are completely smashed. Don’t try to mirror this process, it is proprietary!

Review:
This whine appears to be a favorite of the Speedrome officials. It starts off strong, and shows promise but, by mid palette, it feels over driven and out of control. In the end, it has a disappointing finish with the crocodile tears lingering far too long.

Cheese pairing: Valveeta



Now for the best!!!
The Drome officials collaborated with the biggest whiners to produce a “track whine”. They blended Crybaby Chardonnay and Backmarker Blend, with Spilt Milk, and a Few Bad Apples to produce a truly unique whine.

From Drome Whinery:

Sh*t Show Shiraz


Review: This whine, simply put, is confusing. On the palette, the blend is inconsistent, with little substance or direction. The spilt milk and bad apples seem to have the most influence in the end. Truly, a whine that numbs the senses.

Cheese pairing: Limburger

There you go folks, bring your cheese and cut it with our Super Stock drivers this Friday night!


Next week’s promotion will be “Have Your Cake and Eat it too”.
 
I heard about your awesome whine and cheese story and had to come and tell you how awesome it is! I Was hoping you could do another one called what happens when a spoiled driver intentionally tries to run people over on pit road with his racecar! Could you do that one please?
