If your homeless and love to spend your time drinking wine, you are called a wino. If you have cash and love to drink wine, you are referred to as an oenophile. I can see being an oenophile is much better than being a wino. Oenophiles have money, homes, and wine cellars where they store lots of wine so they never run out. Winos have to wander the streets and beg for money in order to have one bottle at a time. Class privileges I guess.
I guess some other distinctions are that winos drink wine from bottles that come with screw caps while oenophiles only pour wine from bottles with corks. Winos don't pour their wine into a glass and go through the sniff and swirl regimen or worry about letting their wine breathe before they slug it down. They also don't talk to their wino buddies about what fruits, hardwoods, or other flavors they detect in their wine. I'm still not sure who appreciates their wine more though. :doubtful:

Just out of curiosity, do you guys like the single bottle holder type of storage, or those triangle shaped holes where you build an upside down pyramid of bottles? Mike has both types in his closet.
I figure the single bottle holder is probably better if you want to find something and only have 1 or 2 bottles of it, but the triangles are better if you have 1/2-1 case of the same wine and want to keep it together. Right?
I guess when I build my closet it would make sense to have both styles available too.
