Our dad absolutely loves Peju wine and will go on ad nauseum about it if you let him. He always breaks open a bottle for 'special' company so that they, too, can taste the glory of Peju! I go crazy over it also, but it will be some time yet before I can afford it for myself! So I just visit mom and dad as often as I can and drink theirs. Here is a quick story you may appreciate...my mom has always been a wine drinker, but my dad always preferred beer. He was usually just apalled at what my mom used to spend on wine, and would just shake his head at anything that cost more than $10/bottle.
My fiance and I were living in northern California a few years back, and dad and mom came out to visit. We took them on their first tour of Napa, and my dad got hooked! I think it was Peju that turned him onto wine, and now we all get a big kick out of this football watching, beer drinking guy go on and on about the "five noble varieties of bordeaux" and sticking his nose way down into wine glasses, and so on. You converted him, and my mom couldn't be happier!!
