If you are visiting firends and see a Framer's Almanc magnet on their refrigerator and think it's a Chateau Petrus label (I did this earlier this evening)...it was the 2000 to top it off...the colors are a bit off when distorted on the web but at a quick glance it's there...

You might be a wine geek...
when you know the wine just from seeing the color of the capsule.
when you swirl your orange juice at breakfast
and then you sniff it....
Cheers, Jim

LOL!
You're a wine geek when...
your bicycling becomes an excuse to try new wineries!

You pass by Chateau Motor Lodge (real place on Grand Island, NY) and think "ooh a new winery"

You might be a wine geek if this is your home page.
You might be a wine geek if you slap your 22-year old son upside the head for holding his wine glass by the bowl.
I believe we had this thread about 2 years ago on the old WLP and it may be worth resurrecting.

When your at a newstand and as your eyes glance across the cover of latest Vogue magazine your heart flutters with the thought of Musigny VV.

I've done that, too
You know you're a wine geek when you think twice when you hear the term "corked bat."

Cheers !

Stay up all night to read Thomas P’s book “Wine- the 8,000 Year Old Story of the Wine Trade” from cover to cover. (Nicely done Thomas).
