I've been given a lovely bottle of wine for my birthday. The cork is sealed with a wax stamp which I've not seen before. However, since I know nothing about fine drinks, I have no idea what this means.
Now I need to go out and buy a cork screw. Dammit.

Eh, just smash the end of the bottle and just be careful when you pour(and hope for no glass shards in your own glass).

This is what sieves are for. They'll tell you it's for flour, but they're wrong.

A corkscrew has been purchased. Probably a good investment for an extended stay in a country like this one.

Crap, does this mean you touch alcohol now? Well, there's a detail I've missed all these years. Remind me to introduce you to the fine establishments we have around the area should you make it over here.
Anyway, I can confirm that a fine wine is a thing of beauty (not sure about the wax top - I've not come across one of those). I have fond memories of an evening in a restaurant in London (L'Escargot, in case you're interested) with my nose in a glass of wine for much of it because it smelt so incredible. Unfortunately, I forgot to make a note of what it was. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.

It has been opened, and it is delicious. It seems on this continent, €33 gets you something much nicer than it does back home.
It's uhh... let's see... 2002 "Niersteiner Oelberg Riesling Eiswein". Which translates to... "Niersteiner Oelberg Riesling Ice Wine". I only know what the Ice Wine part means.
I don't drink alcohol much. I (brace yourselves) don't like beer at all. I'm more a cider or wine sort of guy, and also enjoy a Frangelico. Honestly though, I've not tried much, nor am I willing to spend much money beyond special occasions. I might drink alcohol a dozen times a year at most. I still don't hold it well, one glass of wine and my face is red with stupid things being said.
In any case, you are welcome to take me out to L'Escargot for some wine-smelling any time. I'm now just an hours flight away.
