Not sure why this is called Lincoln. If it hit you before you knew it, I'd understand, but it's light and average. Unlike Lincoln.

33cl green bottle from Hi Time wines, Costa Mesa. Drank in Laguna Hills at my daughters on 25th March 2026. Clean and clear light golden body, white head. Not much of an aroma, or taste to be honest. It's wet and I was thirsty, so it did the trick.

Really good Armenian style grilled meats here. Both the grilled pork shush kebabs (shishlaki) or the grilled lamb chops.
