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....

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.

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

Wine geek ?
I often catch myself swirling whatever beverage I have in front of me at the time.
Cheers !
