Cool bottle. One of my favorite parts about great restaurants is the somm turning me on to something I wouldn't otherwise have.

I don't drink as much white Rhone as I should, I really enjoy it. As mentioned previously, one of greatest whites of my life was Chave Hermitage Blanc. I actually recently had a South African Marsanne/Rousanne/Viognier blend which was really good and reasonable price like $25-30.

Agree for amateur races, but I sort of like the F1-style arms race of world tour TT tech
