Red food coloring can fool a wine connoisseur into thinking a white wine is red? I don't believe that for a moment. This guy is full of it!

Leonard is absolutely right on the value of wine and its random pricing. A bottle of aged Napa Valley Cab may be priceless for a wine connoisseur, while an average consumer will refer to it just as "a bottle of good wine"; moreover, casual wine-drinker would most likely enjoy a Charles Shaw's bottle from Trader Joe. It always becomes more interesting when labels are off and you have no idea what are you drinking. It is always a challenge to find the best value for the price you're paying. Wine is a rare commodity that loses and gains value overtime. Very often you can buy a $10 bottle, which will be amazing in 3-4 years and will taste better than $50 bottle opened the same night.
