I used to be a wine skeptic. I liked wine okay but I thought the whole culture of "appreciating" wines and finding some wines to be qualitatively better than others was mostly a meme. Then, for New Year's Eve 2000, I decided to spring for a $200-ish bottle of Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame champagne. And goddamn if it wasn't absolutely incredible. Best champagne I've ever tasted —maybe even the best wine period I've ever tasted. It was way more than 4 times better than a $50 bottle of champagne. I'll probably never do it again because $200 is $200, but I'm glad I did it. It opened my eyes.
