I've always been a cab guy myself. Good to know about the goof in the plotline.although i most seriously doubt that was the point of the movie.

As to the question on good wine glasses I use Riedel's Vitis series. Not too expensive but still great quality wine glasses. I am definitely not into wine like some of our other brothers with entire bedrooms filled with wine racks and coolers but I do enjoy a good bottle from time to time. For me, the right drink (whether it be Vodka, Wine or soda) totally enhances a great cigar experience.

A good set of glasses though will go far

another good point... i haven't tried but i can't picture pairing a wine with a cigar an easy task like a cigar and a single malt.

"Lead by example" seems to be lost in translation...

I think his post was an attempt to identify the point of the movie.

But if the shoe fits . . . .

If the behavior modeled is poor, then leading by example is detrimental. If one reads many of your posts it becomes very clear very soon that you fit that mold. You seem very comfortable ridiculing and using a condemning language. I do not know you from Adam, but I wonder what inadequacy you are living with to cause you to project as you do.

Well, I think it centered around the main character's midlife crisis. It just happened to be set in wine country. I certainly didn't watch it to be educated on wine.

Oh, forgot to add that in regard to the post above saying "... main character knows wine...", the ending obviously says otherwise (and hopefully my comment above explains that).

Drinking a $600 bottle out of a paper cup from under the table WAS classic, though...

But not the clear one or the one with the natural nipple. Everyone know that this one preserves the subtle flavors better. Well, everyone who knows as much about ripple as me!

Sweet. Thanks!

I hope the bottle hasn't turned though.

I guess if it has, I can always mix it with some strong coffee and call it Cripple.
