I can help!
Let’s see, decent wine is about $80 a bottle but he’s probably drinking real decent wine and so we’ll figure $150/bottle. Now that should be about 200 bottles/month at 750ml equals 150,000ml’s.
Now a box of good Franzia or such has 5l’s and so for the cost of approx. $18/box equals $540/month.
Think of the savings with this one minor change to consumption.
Now, I’ll agree that Franzia doesn’t rate very high on the ‘decent wine’ scale but after three or four hits who’ll know?
Certainly not this jaded ass.
He may have expensive tastes in wine but I know enough about Hollywood to know he’s got a large entourage that he likes to indulge with booze, drugs and undoubtedly women. Once all that dries up, they’ll be off.
He’s a collector, according to the article he has multiple storage facilities housing collections of art and other things.
My guess is he was investing/collecting/speculating as well as drinking.
Probably a bunch of it in the wine cellar in his French country estate.
He used to hang out with Keith Richards, bet he’s got a ton of very collectible guitars.
We obviously don't travel in the same circles. lol
I favor white wine, and I am able to get award winning Mosel Riesling for about $200 a case, for spatlese and auslese.
I'm familiar with numerous Texas wineries that produce excellent wines, ranging in price from $15 - $40 a bottle. I'll admit my palette is not refined enough to distinguish between those and a $150 bottle from Napa.
I don’t like the efffect of alcohol
But the top 5 percent French reds are no question very very good
And a lot of money
I guess that’s what he drinks by the case
First growth pomerol or paulliac or st emilion
I can’t imagine but it’d be fun
It’s his money
I wouldn’t go broke drinking wine
