Wine should be about what you think is good. the thunder show (he is interviewed) has helped we poor mortals for a while. bottom line it's not the destination but the journey.find like minded friends and enjoy.if price is a fear I have had 100 dollar wines that were so undrinkable I spilled it on my garbage can and the dogs stayed out of it and had 10 dollar bottles that every one went nuts and bought all they could find. bottom line good wine is wine you like, bad wine you don't no matter cost or where it came from.
