Ron Weiner - something you morons do not get.
 

More than half of the bill was high priced wines.

NOBODY, unless you are a jerk off who found money on the street and have to show this to the world, pays 20% tip voluntarily on high priced wines.

Check ANY wine, food, restaurant related board and you'll see what I know for a fact.

Carry on, imbecilles and refuse 20% tip when it's obvious that the voluntary tip will be much less.

WTF do YOU know about wine, Sergio??? :winkwink:

ADG

Bullshit!

Lesson #2, you moron:
the mark up at the good restaurant is 250-400% on the bottle of wine.
Every true wine lover knows that and paying extra $40 on the $200 bottle which costs $50 in the store is for the jerk offs.

WHY the tip on pouring $2000 bottle be different on pouring $200 bottle?
Same stems, same decanter, same everything....
When and IF you ever get real money and not a beer money, you'll understand the value of them and services they buy.

I definitely agree... :thumbsup

"I know nuttting!!!"

Would love to go wine tasting with you in Napa or Sonoma sometime. Let me know if you ever are planning a trip and want to invite an extra person/couple.

I get to Napa at least four times a year, and I am always looking for an excuse to visit more often.

hmmm...why Sonoma or Napa?
I find the best tastings in Florida:

Care to fly to Florida instead?

what's happening here?

Most if not all of the wines you cited in the tastings above are from the Napa/Sonoma region.

For much more affordable tasting, you can visit the actual vineyards where the wine is from, enjoy world-class dining with excellent wine pairings, and relax golfing, playing tennis, or visiting a spa.

Plus you can get a much better price on any cases/bottles that you chose to purchase.

I have a brother in Florida (he lives in an area dubbed the "Redneck Riviera"), so I'll let you know the next time I am out that way. Likewise if you decide to come slumming out to Wine Country, let me know, and I'll see to it that you are wined and dined.

I thought you were Tony...you are not, damn!

Anyway,
I used to like Californian, but nowadays preffer more subtle wines.

Burgundy, aged Piemonte and well aged Bordeaux are now my poisons of choice. American wines are now less than 6% of my total cellar, and majority of them are Oregon Pinot Noirs.

:thumbsup I was surprised but yeah, FL really does have strong wine culture.

#2 in the nation after California:
