“'61! I don't believe it!”

“I've brought you a nice bottle of Cheval Blanc to impress the wine club.”
“It was ripe, round and thoroughly seductive. I said Australian Shiraz.”
“It was jammy, plummy, dense and chewy. There is no doubt in my mind that it was a Napa Valley Merlot.”
“A nice big wine with excellent heft. It's Napa all right, but as I always say, why go Merlot when you can call a Cab?”
