Wine - expensive vs cheap is there a difference?

[killramos]

Sounds like a worth install

[Disoblige]

Oh shit I just saw the wine list thing on the app.
That is really cool.

Wish you could share the cellar though... both the gf and I were updating yesterday and it would be nice to combine some shit

But yeah, drink your wine:

This was very close to turning into garbage

Yeah, it's weird that you can't look at other peoples' cellars.

Vivino should think about it though.
Would make for some interesting interactive murder mysteries.

To fully become the Strava of alcoholism you need to also be able to tag people with bottles they participated in drinking

But I do enjoy the top ranking reviewers, saw one that had their work email address in their profile; nothing screams “work with me” like crushing 80+ bottles of wine/month

I believe I've only had corked wine once.
Two people at the table could tell and two couldn't. It still actually tasted fine, but I guess the two who could tell were quite familiar with that brand. The server agreed and they credited the wine.

Actually, as an aside... The credit turned into a silly debacle. I think the net worth sitting at that table exceeded $100 million and I thought this was funny so I'll share it (with potentially changed names).
Mr. Ford had already generously paid the whole bill. Mr. Chevy and Mr. Dodge were the ones who noticed the foul wine and when the manager returned with a credit for a future visit, they took it without really offering it to Mr. Ford. Granted, Mr. Ford was from California, but it seemed silly to "profit" from a free dinner and not insist that he take it.
I guess they didn't get rich by paying for free wine.

It’s only a flex if he is porking mr fords daughter

[ThePenIsMightier]

I'm all about dick swinging to close out 2020.
I know some insane millionaires, and, I couldn't detect corked wine.

[ExtraSlow]

Had the wine waiter once come back to the table to take away a bottle of wine because he said it was corked. The person who tasted it didn't know, and nobody else had been drinking yet. Waiter was very apologetic. Nobody at that table was rich, but I do know rich people, and I've eaten meals with them. Never poked thier daughters but have a buddy who did. /flex

[ercchry]

I once bought a whole case of corked wine, you could see they had an issue with the corker as the corks all had the same damage... it was very noticeable.

The rich guy’s daughter I use to pork didn’t know anything about wine, his ex wife was also THAT person that would order chicken at a steakhouse. Really didn’t need any of that negativity in my life

Haha it is funny. This sells at Costco for $8.99 and it is decent if you like Malbec. Crazy what a buck or two more can do to wine. Can say the same as we head into the teen $ mark too.

That’s a great cheap wine.

It’s also very good “for everyone” as a table wine.

Nobody will hate it.

[ianmcc]

Being the cheap Scot that I am I find myself drinking almost exclusively BIB wine.
Currently working on a box of Bodacious smooth red but really I just pick whatever is on sale.
Can't have guests over to impress and I am the only one who drinks red anyway.

Plus, the shiny bag makes a great pillow, after!

I got it back down under 100...lol.

I don't really plan on collecting/cellaring. My problem is I see/find more interesting wines than I drink. I have to increase my consumption.

I for one would happily volunteer to help you with this monumental feat.

[ExtraSlow]

Beyond meet to get shitty on wine?

[The_Rural_Juror]

I want to increase the table networth by $200.
