I recently started a wine club at work. I have people sign up to bring in a bottle of wine once every 5-6 weeks or so. Each week, there is a different theme (e.g. last week was Chardonnary, this week is Pinot Noir). It’s a good opportunity to learn more about wine and to get people in different departments to talk to each other.
One recent comment I received that validated my initiative was “Friday wine club is the thing I look forward to the most during the work week.”
As I’m learning more about wine, I still can’t get myself to spend over $10 on a bottle. I go to Trader Joe’s and see literally hundreds of bottles under $10; so what’s the point in spending more? :) Yeah, I know, I won’t be considered a true wine connoisseur until I have knowledge of more expensive wines. Maybe when I’m rich…

you are a oenophile.

it is our all-time favorite. this is the one that we bought 2 cases of and we are now down to like 10 bottles, so sad. anyway, once you try this, you will not be able to drink a lot of the other wines that are out there. totally serious.
