You can find Le Freak in the French section of the wines - I picked it up at the NSLC over on Portland St, but I've seen it at Clyde St. too. Shouldn't be hard to find.

I've tried Cats Pee on a Gooseberry Bush! Someone gave it to Marty for his birthday, and I drank most of it. I don't drink white wine too often, I found it a little bit tart... but that didn't stop me from glugging a few glasses of it!

Where did you get that Le Freak wine? It sounds intriguing. I came across this unusually named white wine yesterday: Cat's Pee on a Gooseberry Bush

Awesome. I'd never had a white wine quite like this before, its dry but fruit - especially if you chill it first.

This is a wine you can count on. I order this the most while out at restaurants, and its the wine I normally have on hand at home.

I'm a sucker for wines with silly names, luckily for me - this impulse buy was pretty tasty!
