I did like the sound of the "Scraping the Barrel", but then again, I've got a warped sense of humour....
Gotta admit, living in a country where a decent bottle of wine can be bought for 5 USD, DOES help a bit !!!!!

miklkit, we finally agree. Beringer used to make the best gamay beaujolais around but since it became illegal to give that name to any wine produced outside the Beaujolais villages in France in 2007 I now have to import it. What a shame. Beringer is a fine winery.

Regarding the "dusty bottle"-
I lived in Detroit for many years. The liquor stores in some areas once catered to an exclusive clientele, but that group had fled to the burbs long ago. Ownership changed, and often one could find real treasures in the discount bins. I can still remember snagging a $5 premiere cru Chablis that was easily worth 5 - 10 times that much, and an aged to perfection Chateau Haut-Peyreguey sauterne for a couple of bucks in the discount bin.
Of course, the factor of age made it a crapshoot, as even the best wines can oxidize with poor storage. But it's often worth a $2 gamble to give that dusty bottle a second look.
