A Good Batch.

'A cheeky red?'

'... And this is my cellar.'

'Plastic corks, then screw caps; when they come out with a flip-n-sip Chateau Petrus I'm hanging up my tastevin.'

"Is there any way I can un-drink this wine?"

'I swear, if he didn't always pick up the tab, I'd never go drinking with him.'

'You wanted to be a wine maker in the worst way, Paul - and you've succeeded.'

"We're hoping for a really smooth wine here."

"Is Pinot Noir where you want to be?"

'How do you folks get away with such flagrant violation of Prohibition?'

'Note to self: Like coffee, homemade coffee wine should be available in decaf, too.'

"I make it myself!"

'This is the last time we hire former Cirque du Soleil members as stompers.'

'That may be what the wine glossary says, but to me, terroir means a fantatic view.'

'They say you have to drink 4 times as much merlot as pinot noir to get the same level of anti-oxidants. Isn't that just too, too bad?'

'So much for your theory that mixing two 50-point-rated wines equals one rated 100.'

'When we bought this place we thought we'd only be making wine. Apparently, we're also into spirits.'

'It's a little varietal I bottle myself...Type A positive.'

An Excellent Nose for Wine.

On Champagne: 'Nobody knows the bubbles I've seen.'

'Would you like some of our house wine? I just made it.'

Red Wine

'I, Dom Perignon, will now uncork the very first bottle of Champagne. Of course, I'm just guessing this is the right way to do it.'

'There's a little bit of my late husband in every glass - I used his ashes as a fining agent.'

"So much for that vintage!"

I never heard of chunky style wine. I couldn't find any seedless grapes.

"Soy milk and rice milk are okay but I prefer grape milk.".

'Now forget that I'm your boss and the CEO. How does my new product idea, Just the Lees, taste?'
