Audio and Wine?


I was wondering whether any audiophiles out there share my wine obsession? I�ve found recently that my interest in wine and audio is very similar �

both eat up a lot of my disposable income
are very expensive and technical
very difficult to downgrade (or drink lesser wine) as time goes by.

Also, both interests (or obsessions) attract some scoffing or ridicule from non-believers. At least with audio, one has what could be called an investment, but with wine, the pleasures are more ephemeral. Anyway, are there any other wine aficionados out there? If so, what are your three favorite wines? Mine are:

(1) Neiabum Copolla Directors Reserve (both cabernet and merlot - $30).

(2) Groth Vineyards - just about anything � Cabernet ($48), Merlot ($35), Chardonnay ($25) or Sauvinon Blanc ($17).

(3)Whitehall Lane (Merlot - $22).

Best I�ve had � Whitehall Lane Reserve Cabernet �95 ($125).

Count me in as a Reidel owner. The fact that I have a set of the Cabernet and Pinot Noir glasses should give you a clue to where my inclinations lie :).

However, summer for me is white wine season, so raise a glass of Sauvingon Blanc or Viogner (or if you must, Chardonnay) to celebrate the 4th!
