Art of Wine

This blip is from the label of my favourite everyday wine, an Aussie red. I find it incredible they can sell such quality at such a low price. It's as if the distance didn't matter - meaning I'm in Scandinavia.

All this brings to my mind a wine anecdote.

Two old acquintances meet and chat at a wine stand.

- You like red too, don't you?

- Sure do. By the way, where is your threshold of pain in the price of wine?

- Ten euro. I can't touch plonk that's cheaper than that!
