What's your pleasure? I like Remy, but haven't had some in the house in
quite a while

I'm not real fussy. Lately it has been Landy ($15) or Remy "Petit
Champagne" ($19). For something similar that is domestic
(Germain-Robin), I'd be looking at at least $30. But after the holidays
it will be back to Jaques Bonnet ($8.69) and my budget:-(

Alles Gute,

Well, I got really spoiled in college - lots of bad beers/wine/liquor and
then was introduced to the good stuff. I'll buy the good stuff and eke it
out; and do without if I need the $$$ for some kid related expense.

I like to think that I have a paisano attitude towards my table. The
bread and the wine don't have to be gold medal winners, but it has to be
there. Cheap-skate oenophiles also take great pride in finding under
priced wines, and buying them by the cases to hold them over until the
next discovery. Then comes the question of good and gooder. Chateau
Ausone sells for $800/btl but would I enjoy it 130 times more than the
little Bordeaux and Cotes du Rhone that I enjoy at $5/btl? Lastly there
is the question of gourmet vs. gourmand. I, wholeheartedly, embrace the
later group. It would appear that you are a member of the former;-)

Allons voir, si le vin est bon.

Joyeux Noel et une Bonne Annee
