Thanks for checking out the basket case wine website! We started basket case in 2006 to appeal to people who think like we do. Why basket case? Well, we came to realize that all the people we loved and enjoyed were every bit as whacked as we were, and 'normal' just seemed to be a figment of everyone's imagination. Who wants to be normal anyway?
