Please log in for more thread options "drives"... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109635/ starring Michael Douglas and Demi Moore? A fine bottle of Chardonnay by Pahlmeyer figured heavily in the plot, as it IS extremely hard to find, and Demi's character claimed she sent her secretary out to the corner wine store to just "pick up a bottle". After viewing the movie I was intrigued and went looking for the Pahlmeyer label. Couldn't find it in stores. Finally found it on the web... you have to join the "club" for the privilege of buying a case in advance. Last week I was in Riverside, CA, and ate at a restaurant (Duane's) in the Mission Inn. Spotted Pahlmeyer Chardonnay on the wine list. And just had to try it out to see what it was like... http://analog-innovations.com/SED/PahlmeyerCork.jpg Great Chardonnay! But it cost me $110 for the privilege ;-) ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson, P.E. | mens | | Analog Innovations, Inc. | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | Phoenix, Arizona Voice:(480)460-2350 | | | E-mail Address at Website Fax:(480)460-2142 | Brass Rat | | http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | America: Land of the Free, Because of the Brave | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Not really, no. I'll give you a 'frinstance: My tastebuds are not of a very high standard. Blindfold me and ask for the difference between your Pahlmeyer, and some cask wine. I'd likely say one of them was orange juice. Or you can REALLY confuse me, and substitute soda pop for one of them. In that case, I'd likely say one is the bubbly version of the other. -- Linux Registered User # 302622 <http://counter.li.org>
