"I do like to think about the life of a wine, how it's a living thing.  I like to think about what was going on the year the grapes were growing, how the sun was shining that summer, or if it rained... what the weather was like.  I think about all those people who tended the grapes...  I love how a wine continues to evolve, how every time I open a bottle it's going to taste different than if I had opened it on any other day.  Because a bottle of wine is actually alive; it's contantly evolving...  And it tastes so @#$%ing good!"
