Please don't veer into the old "wine is art" nonsense AGAIN.

And, I personally get far more pleasure out of a fantastic bottle of wine, great food, and loved ones to share it with than any piece of art I could hang on my wall and look at every day. But, that's just me....

To each his own. I would emplore you to at least try a Petrus one day. Or a Screaming Eagle. Especially if you want to, and can afford it.

Cheers,

YES, I can't bring it with me to the other side, and I posted the same thought ad nauseum, but, MEMORRIES I can. Art and travel leave better memorries with me than wine, plus,
there are LOTS and LOTS of people whom I love and who enjoy the money I share MUCH more than I'd enjoy the Petrus.

I feel better about myself sending former employee who lost job the check for $1000 to pay rent than I'd feel about myself buying a bottle of Petrus, drinking it and posting TN's for all to see that I can.
