    But it was a blind taste test by experts which showed that the best Californian wines could beat the best French ones, not marketing.

      LOL…the opinions of ‘experts’ on wine has been debunked so many times.

      Dude…those experts simply know how identify California wine and are paid to tell you it’s ‘better’.

      The fact that people defer to experts to tell if they like a wine or not is very telling.

      I could market Franzia to $200 a bottle with the right bottle shape and label, and of course natural corks, more bullshit.
