“At $1000 a bottle, Le Montrachet is a rather expensive white wine”

Why heck, that’s only about $200 to $250 a glass, you got a problem with that?

Kind of a damn shame that I will probably never experience Chateau Petrus, Le Montrachet, Romanee Conti, etc., before I expire unless I win the lottery or go crazy and rob a really good wine store.

Another wine junkie friend of mine and I joke about breaking into some rich persons extravagant wine cellar and leaving behind a bunch of empty bottles, bread crumbs and cheese rinds with smart alecky tasting notes. What else can poor wine snobs do?

My secret:

1. Expense accounts, 2. Business lunches paid for by clients with larger expense accounts.
