lol! I know several merlots and pinots that are really only good for imparting flavor in cooking. I tend to buy a different bottle of wine as a control for the cook.

Not mention she cook with wine that $40-50 a bottle if she bought the same wine of a current vintage today. Do you look at the wines she is serving? Grand Cru's did not cost like they do today.
