Ok, so I'm learning a lot.  Today I looked at so many bottles of wine, I thought my eyes were going to explode.  So I figure, each time I go to work I'll let you know one thing I learned.  Therefore, it will stick in my head, and... being that I am a teacher... you'll learn something too.
TODAY:
"Cuvee"-- Any guesses?
It means a a special blend or batch of wine that is to be of the finest from that winemaker.  It also could be from the first press of the fruit.
It's interesting because I don't see it on a lot of bottles, but they aren't the most expensive wines either.  So I guess the next bottle I'll have to buy is one with "cuvee" on it so I know if it really is the finest from that particular winemaker...
Hummmmmmmmm, I love my job.
