I'm sure after a hard day of slangin' floss, he willl want to take his frustration out on someone.

I thought earrings on dudes were about as cool as Nickelback.

The markup goes down as the price of the bottle goes up. FACT.

Restaurants know there is a ceiling on how much they can charge and people who buy more expensive wine know what they are paying for.

The OPPOSITE is true on champagne.

Also -

ODD YEARS are better than EVEN YEARS - ESPECIALLY on wine from Italy, France and Spain (or anywhere where there are more microclimates based on elevation). More global moisture in odd years thanks to El Nino.

You're welcome.


ETA:

Seems I've dropped some OP material into an outing thread...

Don't mind me. Proceed as you were.

your post had ZERO to do with my OP. The OP is referencing the margins in the 2nd "cheapest" wine and your post is all about margin on the most expensive bottles....at least try to keep up

Actually it had EVERYTHING to do with your OP and I've set up at least a dozen wine lists for openings of restaurants. The majority of which were fine dining.

Idiot.

Beer or liquor. There is no in between like wine. Wine drinkers think they're too good for beer but are too wimpy for liquor. No wonder the French are all over it. It's a pseudo compromise where you don't have to take a stand.
you keep believing that shite. You must be from the panhandle.

I can't believe that a thread has gone on for this long about wine. fricking Franzia barely has any arsenic in it and costs ~$12 for ~6 bottles of delicious crisp white. Just order that shite when you go out you uppity see you next Tuesdays.
