So much to say about this.

1. Love collecting wine but I’m not a collector

2. Love drinking wine but but there is definitely a braking point for drinkability at about $17/bottle. The care put into better wines is immediately evident.

3. Love the ceremony of opening a bottle, letting it breathe, taking the first taste, and watching everyone else taking the first taste. 4. Love going to a restaurant and splurging on something you’ve always wanted to try.

5. Love screw caps for the technical science but I don’t collect screw caps like I do corks.

6. Love the crapshoot that every single bottle of every single vintage offers.

7. Love the lifetime memories that great bottles give.

8. Love shopping for wine and the strange Amarone that turned out surprisingly amazing!

9. Love all the opinions on varietals and years and terroir and debates over French, and new world.

10. Hate merlot.
