I have an $8 big bottle of Conch y Toro that I like. I'd pour that sucker into a carafe and sell it for $25. Probably 90% of the Rutgers student body would buy it at $25 but wouldn't touch it at $6.00.

What I know about wine is I buy what I like. I will say that I tried a glass or two of good wine that my uncle, who loved wine and could afford it, gave me on my infrequent visits. He'd buy a case at a time of good wine and stick it in his special wine closet. Had a huge collection after half a century of selecting good wines. That ***** was good, yeah!

If I could afford really good wine I'd buy a bottle occasionally. Funny, I'll buy a $50 bottle of scotch and not mind it but damned if I'll pay $20 for wine!
