One Response to “Know any interesting facts, myths or old wives tales about wine in general or a specific wine?”

   Old wives tales:

   Shiraz and Syrah are different wines.
   White Zin comes from white zin grapes but red zin comes from red zin grapes.

   Myths:

   You get what you pay for in wine. $150 bottles are worth every penny.
   "Oh, I can tell the difference for sure!" –Yeah, right.
   Cork taint comes from air.
   All wines need to "breathe".
   Bottles with screw caps must be crap.

   Stumped on interesting trivia right now. If I think of something I’ll get back to you.
