THe Price Of Wine Is Expected Anywhere To Be At Least 3 To 4 Times More Expensive Than Retail, But Retail Shops Don’t Have A Waiter Who Will Open The Bottle And Serve It And Let You Form Your Own Opinion Before Even Taking One Sip. Also The Size Of The Steak Is Not All That Matters. It Is The Quality. The Marbling, The Texture. Those Of You Who Are So Quick To Pass Judgement Might Want To Take Another Trip To Your Local Saltgrass And Enjoy Some Fondeaux Along With A Nice Room Temperature Merlot, And Top It All Off With A New York Strip Served With A Loaded Baked Potato, And Cool Down With A Scrumptious Slice Of Homemade Cheesecake. Enjoy The Full Experience Before And Then Come Back And Tell Me What You Think.

Actually, that is too warm for the merlot, unless you have a chilly dining room.

Reds: The bottles should feel cool to the touch, but not cold (about 60� F to 65� F).
