i wasn't brought up with wine really, but when i got to oxford, i was exposed to some pretty nice wine. And it was a bottle of chambal musiny les amoures 19 59, which was so, so much better than any student planc that i had tasted up to then. Thehe nag is that the wines were burgand, ha, ha,ha. Well, our seniar universities are doing a very good job, because i'm the cambridge contingent here. But notr akou. Very it was a burgundy i was haha.
