(1) "I’m in the wine business (East Coast)" = "I buy cases and sell bottles." "I’m in the wine business (West Coast)" = "I buy harvests and sell grapes" or "I buy grapes and sell cases."
(2) I’d love to be a gentleman farmer. But these days to get there you have to pay your dues. Napa and Sonoma are lousy with law practice money; unless MR has serious bank, there’s no room at that baccarat table anymore.
(3) You know a good way to make a small fortune in the wine game? Start with a large one.
It’s probably a good gig if he can get it, but can he get it?
