'A little flinty with a blackcurrent boguet, medium tannin, a slight hint of the sea, with merlot overtones and an after taste that becomes okaey with a hint of liquorice...'

"Your wine flight with the turducken, sir."

"This one gives you a nice rich, oaky hangover."

"The great is $54.99, and I do have a near-great for $23.99."

"I had a hell a time choosing which wine went with your unrealistic expectation of me."

'You sent your wife to get a bottle of wine from the wine cellar? Your jet doesn't have a wine cellar.'

'WHITE wine with cornmeal!'

'Do I detect an inner grape struggling to get out?'

'That's the wine you want? I don't believe we have one with a label depicting you water-skiing naked in Vegas.'

'Resveratrol? Flavonoids? Phenolic compounds? Whatever happened to asking about the grape type and origin?'

Nouveau wine

'It was an excellent year for corks.'

"What would the world be like without wine? I can't bear to think of it."
