What if Hitler was a California Cult Winery Owner?
The use of a particular sequence from the 2004 movie Der Untergang for comic effect by switching out the subtitles has a long history on the internet. I first saw it several years ago in (what is still my favorite) brilliant version about Burning Man. But it's been used for everything under the sun.
It was only a matter of time before Hitler took a trip to Napa Valley (warning, adult language included):
Can't remember what tweet I saw first about this, but obviously, I'm not the first to discover it, and owe my discovery to someone else. Thanks, whoever you were!

There is a reasonI avoid this sort of thing: once I stop there is no stopping.

2/Now that Galloni has reviewed California wines for The Wine advocate, what do people think??

Good question, Mel. In the province of Napa, I haven't heard anything yet, actually. The explosion of reactions will come on or about November 15th (or whenever the "Napa issue" comes out.) Better lube up your keyboards!

I just find lumping everything from Ridge, Mt Eden, Rhys, all the way down to Ojai and Sine Qua Non, not to mention Paso and Monterey County,....a bit much
