Early connoisseur
When Lisa and Scott were in the age range of 9 to say 12 or so, Ken and I were on a wine tasting and appreciation kick. We would let the kids taste small amounts of the wine, to make it not too much of a forbidden mystery, make sure they knew something about wine when they grew up and also because a little bit is quite good for you. We enjoyed a particular vineyard - Joseph Phelps, which at that time was reasonable in price. Move on to a wedding reception, crowded, everyone in the buffet line. In one of those eerie moments of absolute quiet that occur during these gatherings, I hear my daughter's clear, carrying, bell like voice saying "mother, do they have any Gewurztraminer?" She must have been 10 or 11, and every head in the room turned in wonder to look. Hilarious.
