Do you find this to be exaggerated? I mean give me a bottle under $10 and I will find it undrinkable. Above that there starts to be some half-decent bottles, and at $15 I see the lines blurring as there as some really enjoyable wines in that range.

At the same time, it’s not hard to find bottles $30+ that I don’t enjoy. I’m not an expert but based on personal taste there are wines in every range that I like/dislike. Do you feel like you can’t have an honest opinion about wine?

I like their sparkling Rosè but your comment reminds me that I was talking solely about dry red above.

From anecdotal experience I've seen that real wine lovers will enjoy even a cheaper wine although they'll have a bigger appreciation for good expensive wines, while people who aren't that enthusiastic about wines -myself included- will disgorge cheaper wines and will find the expensive ones smooth and delicious. I always say that only real wine gurus are the lucky ones to be happy even with a $20 bottle.

Wine tastings don't work because there is residue flavor and the taste buds don't function well after drinking more than one type.

It's definitely true that some cheap wine is very good, and some expensive wine is very bad, but the price is usually a fairly good indicator of quality.

Was this the video where they told him he had a granddaughter and he didn’t stop saying the Shiur?

Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.

It was a video of eating kosher grasshoppers (I guess it was asked to be taken down)

Probably time for an Airport Collapse Master Thread, but that's above my pay grade
