So I'm watching Schindlers list and you know that scene at the start where Liam Nessen is at the restaurant and trying to order some super fancy wine vintage and the water doesn't have it so he keeps asking for different ones? Well I didn't understand a word of it but it sounds sooo sophisticated and I realized, I want to be that guy! Not the war profiteer turned Jew savior part but a wine snob. I want to be that smug guy at the Applebee's who gets loudly indignant we at the 19 year old waitress when she says that they don't carry my obscure 19th century Sicilian vintage only to sigh and settle for some plebeian refreshment. Surely no woman overhearing this could possibly resist my fine taste in both beverages and facial hair! (I plan to grow out a proud Hohenzollern mustache to match) So any advice?

Just make stuff up, that's actually what all the wine snobs do. No one, not even other wine snobs, can tell the difference between actually knowing something about wine and making poo poo up.

get some two litre soda bottles fill one with some fruit snacks and moldy bread and water put a cap with a hole in it on that bottle put that bottle on its side on the top of a counter top, put some plastic tubing in the lids hole then put a second lid with a hole on the empty bottle put it on ground connect tubing, wait a bit get 10% alcohol that taste like fruit punch.

real talk: find a place that knows their wine, understands your budget, and is willing to educate you as to why they're making their recommendations let them do the work for you and reap the rewards E: i think you're in Mass? if so i can give you a couple of recommendations on places that will cover all your bases

Walk into a liquor store, pick up their finest Pinot Noir then raise it in the air and smash it into the ground and throw yourself down on your knees and start licking that poo poo up off the ground, if they try to wrestle you out of the store fight desperately to keep them off and keep sucking that grape juice off the floor.
