Can you say: "2005 Margaux. That's hot!"

Alder, thanks for bringing these headlines to our attention! I'm going to Vinexpo and can't wait to see Paris in a hot air balloon. I'll try to get video and send it to your blog.

That Riedel article can NOT be serious.

The 30-year-old Riedel said, “We have already demonstrated that hardcore connoisseurs embrace the concept that different wine types are enhanced by distinct shapes of glasses. Now we are going after complete morons.”
