I went to Le Bec Fin some years ago and shared a bottle of wine that had been pulled from a shipwreck

Around $20k and since I wasn’t paying, I was high drinking something that was older than our country.

I think the ship went down in 1772.

To kewel.

making it similar to a contemporary desert wine

Ahh, the delicate sandy desert wine, an oasis of flavor.

What was the ‘best before’ date on the bottle? Right, didn’t think so.

Once found some 2-year-old plain yogurt near the back of my fridge. It was still good to eat.
