It's fun to ask them in restaurants to put a bottle of red in ice water for 5 minutes. They look at you like you are the biggest bozo that has ever walked in. I just tell them that when a red is too warm it totally obfuscates the terwaugh. @Chieftain - No doubt warm reds are the worst.

And I'm sure in Florida we'll do some more... On the subject of wine fridges, I just recently bought a two-zone model with reds at 60 and whites at 48 and a new life is opening up. Just now see that every glass of red I've had in Houston for 20 years has been too warm, and life in the reds is good.

And remember, you don't have to stop liking beer to like wine. I'm a total wino, but I loves me some brews (even Coors Light!). @Mick - I think a wine chiller on the boat is a great idea!

Good composition, grammatically correct, entertaining, informative, and I learned a new word (terroir--the one you misspelled, as has already been pointed out). Keep up the good work! Please express a belated Happy Birthday to Fiona. :) Just read the entire blog, and I give it an A- (for the one incorrect spelling–I’m sure it was the wine that made you do it).

I quite enjoy a split of Champagne or four. It's like you own personal slice of heaven - just add a straw. I’m disappointed you left off smaller sizes, though.

At my favorite wine place in Champaign the owner once brought out a double magnum of this sexy Italian shit. He said that anyone could sample it if they could pour a taste with one hand. It was a challenge, but I managed. It was worth it. Plus, double magnums are just plain fun - a party in a bottle. Very cool chart.
