got a good wine story for ya
(in the summer i am a wine drinker as well)
Last year while racing out east our main sponsor wanted us (the team) to meet him in New York city to go to an upscale bistro he wanted to check out, BLT Primes. While having dinner he askes if any of us would like to split a bottle of wine, couple of us said sure so he orders up a bottle. They bring it out and the head waiter seemed to make a big deal out of it, complimented Mark on the selection but said he was sorry to see it go. They pour some glasses (picture me as Ellwood in the resteraunt scene in Blues Brothers
) I had a few glasses and made a mental note of the bottle. 2004 Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon . . . . . . . . Screaming Eagle? WTF? (Google it, thats what i did the next day lol) Later on i was glad to have had the experiance but in retrospect wish i hadnt chased it with that beer

then i guess I'm glad i didnt pick up the tab
i know nothing about high end wines. Heck i like our local island wines best. Anything past twenty or thirty bucks and as far as i'm concerned its an over rated cult wine
