Thought it came from a box.
You're right it does come in a box. But you need to open the box to get to the bottles, and the wine in the bottles comes from Puligny-Montrachet. If you are lucky.
I once tried shipping the whole of Puligny-Montrachet back home, but found that it didn't fit in the back garden, so I had to send it back.
In the very early 70s Puligny Montrachet was sold exceedingly cheaply across the road in Unwins. Loved the taste so much it became our 'plonk'. No-one around knew that it was called Puligny Mont-rachet. We all thought it was Puligny Monntrashay!
I can imagine the Monntrashay Partays were a riot.. I wonder if 70steen was there?!
I opened the box. It said the bag was filled at the Xtreme Yumm chemical plant, Hoboken, New Jersey, and it had nearly 10% real wine flavouring.
@lazy - Ahh now I am with you and see your problem. The word "wine" should not appear in the same sentence, or really in the same vicinity, as "made in America."
I thought it came from Safeways. Or Australia, whichever is closer.
@UDH heathen - It can come VIA Safeways. It CANNOT come from Australia. Please do not try to deliberately confuse our young graduand.
I am really flattered with the post;) I think we should start from scratch and you have to teach me how to nurse a out-of-money positions during a 5% sell off in the market.. re-wine; ;) I am open to learn in quick way but please lets keep the first 20 trials of the learning procees costing less than 10 eur per unit :)
@trywalker - the more you know about wine, the less you will care about positions, in or out of the money :-)
It's a bit of a struggle to get Puligny-Montrachet at under EUR 10 per bottle, however, I am sure if you ask the chief dealer nicely he will subsidise you out of the HR training budget.
Did some one call my name???
was I there?? It must have been one helluva a riotious partay.... I can't remember!! ;-)
@70s - Always the sign of a good partay.. if you don't know whether or not you attended ;-)
Indeed :-D
The post was lost on me, I'm a brown-bagger.

@your lordship - what on earth is a "brown-bagger"... the mind boggles!!
Brown-bagging is drinking your booze from the bottle so quickly after purchase that it's still in the paper bag.
Perhaps it has different names in other parts of the world.

P.S. it's not to be confused with "double brownbagger"

@laog - hahahahahha thank you for the double morning chuckle :-)))
