Defining 'Good' Wine
- "Good wine" is subjective, like any taste preference.
- People have different physiological experiences with food and drinks.
Price vs. Quality
- High prices often reflect rarity, not necessarily quality.
- A $500 bottle might be costly due to high demand and limited supply.
Storing Wine
- Store wine in a cool, dark, and vibration-free place, like a basement or closet.
- Avoid storing wine in the fridge for extended periods to prevent the cork from drying out.
