hmmm ... my thought is - what is better than drinking some nice wine? okay, i will add a caveat ... what is better than drinking some nice wine (when you are anywhere close to my age). when you are younger, you think with different approaches to life.
i drank about 12 different wines with some friends tonight - 2006 corton charlemagne, 2005 chassagne montrachet (premier cru), 1994 alsatian gewurztraminer (zind humbreche), 2005 hermitage blanc, 1999 palmer (bordeaux), 1994 la dominique (bordeaux), 1990 beausejour duffau (bordeaux), 2009 rhys pinot noir, 1998 duhart milon rothschilds (bordeaux), 2004 vosne romanee, les beaux monts (burgundy), a vintage port. any guesses what the best wines were?
