TMI 260930 Wine Tips

Humans have been making and drinking wine for over 8000 years. In this episode, we’ll be talking to the former owner of a winery and demystifying this everyday drink for everybody. This Livestream is sponsored by Aura.com. Go to my link https://aura.com/moondog to get a 14-day free trial and see if any of your data has been exposed.

Read my notes: https://moondogindustries.com/tmi-260923-arken-optics/

We’ve been drinking wine for a long time. The oldest evidence of winemaking dates from 6000 BC in the Central Asian steppes of Georgia. It’s written about in the Old Testament and in Greek . It forms the basis of the earliest Christian traditions.

For most of Europe, it’s an everyday drink. But for us here, it’s a snobby drink. What do you think about wine. Is it something you drink regularly or something you’ll drink if served and you have no options?

Confession time: I’m a recovering wine snob. I’ve been attending wine tastings in NYC since the early 1990s. From 2015-2017, I was one of the owners of a winery in Argentina.

But I learned enough to learn this. It’s mostly B.S. Wine should be enjoyed with food like beer.

If you’ve got no clue about what wine to buy if asked to pick up a bottle on the way to a dinner or housewarming, I can give some advice.

EARLYBIRD Visual Clue:

DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE

Wine used to be a snobby drink. And many people still think it is.

I DON’T LIKE WINE

If you like funky cheeses or dry cheeses, you’ll like more sophisticated wine. If you only like American slices or mozzarella sticks. You should enjoy sangria, a dry rosé, or a sweet White Zin.

Sweet wine like White Zinfendel is popular for a reason. Just like when you started drinking you started with a cocktail, then later got into vodka or whiskey.

FOOD AND WINE

Pair wine with your food eg. Sweeter wines with sweeter dishes.

BBQ: Red Wine (Merlot, Red Zinfendel, Red Blend, etc.) or Frutier White (Sauvignon Blanc), or a White Zinfendel by Josh, Sutter Home, Barefoot Cellars

Steak: Dry or bold red (Cabernet, Pinot Noir, Malbec, Chanti) by Mondavi, Kendal Jackson

Seafood: Light red or Dry (Fume Blanc, Pinot Grigio)

ORDERING WINE AT RESTAURANTS

Avoid the cheapest wine on the list.

Avoid the most expensive unless somebody else is picking up the tab.

Ask the waiter/somilier. They want a good tip, so they won’t steer you toward a bad wine.


HOW TO SHOP

Buy your wine at COSTCO.

As a beginner, avoid wines that cost less than $10 and any wine that costs more than $50 from a grocery or liquor store.

Store your wine sideways to keep the cork moist

Avoid boxed wine or jug wine.

Cork is not a guarantee of a good wine.

Avoid fancy labels with lots of gold foil or complicated graphics.

Matte, dull labels are better than shiny labels.

If they put a Wine Score on the label thats good. But it really doesn’t mean much. Almost every decent wine scores a 92 or above if they buy an ad in the magazine.

TIPS

Buy a bottle that is at least 5 years old. Age matters for good wines but not crappy ones.

Wine doesn’t always get better with age. Don’t save your wine for more than 5 years unless you know it’s a very tannin-heavy wine.

Air your wine. Use a decanter or an electric frother. If you can open your bottle an hour or more before serving it will taste better.

COUNTRIES AND REGIONS

Napa is the US’s most famous region but it’s now mostly marketing and money. California is known for bold wines.

French wines are good but there is a huge range of qualities. Most are mild and less bitter/tanin.

Australia is known for good wines. The ones sold in the US are generally good value. They’re most popular variety is Shiraz which is their name for the same grape as Syrah wine here.

Italian and Spanish wines can be great good but generally not as available here nor as good of a value. The cheaper Italian bottles are kind of mediocre and more expensive than mediocre California wines.

Chile and Argentina are known for good value wines. Argentina’s most common variety is Malbec which is a originally from France.

BRAND CONTEST CLUE

This Napa Valley wine brand gets its name from the man credited for discovering gold in California. But it has nothing to do with him. The brand name was an invention by Italian-American winemaking family, the Trinchero’s who bought the winery in 1948 and built it into one of the largest wine makingers in the US.

FINAL CLUE

BRAND CONTEST CLUE

This gun-maker was founded in 1949 by Alexander McCormick Sturm and William B. Ruger. Its first firearm was a .22LR semi-auto pistol heavily inspired by the Japanese Nambu and German Luger pistols.

DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE

Arken is a Texas-based optics company that was founded by a former Navy SEAL. In the 2010s, it came out with the SH4 scope, which changed the optics landscape. For the first time, you could get a brand-new PRS-style long-range scope for under $400.

Last year they went through an ownership and management change. They’ve come out of it with a new headquarters in Houston, TX, upgrades to their long-range scopes, and a brand new hunting-scope line. Today, I interview Bill Pauley of Arken Optics.

FINAL CLUE

This gun maker produces the two most popular .22LR rifles in the world. September of 2020 it purchased Marlin firearms from Remington and now produces both the Marlin 60 and its own 10/22 rifle.

BRAND CONTEST CLUE

Introduced in 1963, this was the Coca-Cola Company’s first no-calorie diet softdrink.

DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE

This year, Ozempic launched the “There’s Only One Ozempic” consumer TV campaign staring Justin Long and John Hodgman, that spoofs the duo’s iconic 2000s Apple “Get a Mac” commercials.

Apple’s “Get a Mac” campaign which ran from 2006-2009, created by TBWA-Chiat/Day. This campaign was largely lauded at the time, as being memorable, funny, and unpretentious (unlike the previous “Think Different” campaign).

But what l possessed Novonordisk bankroll this arguably terrible and unfunny campaign which has been largely ignored or lambasted by critics in the creative, technology, and pharma space. https://appleinsider.com/articles/26/01/21/ozempic-maker-launches-the-latest-painfully-unfunny-im-a-mac-ripoff

It’s so bad, I could not find any article identifying the Advertising agency responsible for the creative development of the TV ads. A company called Rogue Producer is credited for the creative work. After further delving, they have been described as “an internal independent advertising and content production department”, which explains why this campaign is so meh. It’s a TV commercial created by NovoNortics own marketing department who created something only they find amusing or interesting. Nobody else cares.

This is an example of “Talking to Yourself” and “Borrowed Interest”

Borrowed interest: Advertising and Marketing’s “Cheap Shot”

• Apple’s own “Think different” campaign featuring Albert Einstein, Martin Luther King Jr., Picasso, and others. They never owned a Mac.

• All Celebrity Endorsements: Matthew McConaughey + Lincoln

• Dead Celebrity Endoresement: Fred Astaire + Dirt Devil

With the permission of his wife, the late Fred Astaire was shown in one of his best-known film dance routines with a Dirt Devil in a computer-generated scene for an ad that debuted during the 1997 Super Bowl.

• Bugs Bunny in Nike’s Michael Jordan’s Air Jodan TV campaign. So successful it spawned the movie “Space Jam”

OZEMPIC CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT?

FINAL CLUE

This O.G. diet soft drink was also the first to receive a health scare. In the early 1970’s a lab rat study suggested a connection between sacharine and cancer in lab rats, forcing this drink to sport the first medical warning in it’s label. It was later found that the Canadian study was flawed giving male rats the equivelent of 800 soda cans of sacarin per day. The FDA officially removed the cancer warning in 2000 but too late for this brand, which was canceled by Coca-Cola.

HISTORY OF THE TRAILCAM

TrailCams seem like a modern invention. But after doing a deep dive, I came across this article from a Canadian hunger Nathan Davis that reminded me that TrailCams have been around for almost as long as there have been film cameras.

In 1877 Eadweard Muybridge took this historic series of photos of a galloping horse.

•Proved a bet by Leeland Standfor that a horse has all 4 legs in the air during a full running gallop.

• This led to the invention of motion pictures

In the 1880’s George Shiras III a Congressman from PA and a pioneer in nature photography, invented wildlife trap photography using a flash and trip wire.

The first commercialy available all-in-one film TrailCam was the 1980’s Cuddeback.

BUT I DIGRESS
Camera companies were instrumental in creating products for hunting. Leica invented the first commercially available hand-held laser range finder in 1993.

Mileseey makes industrial laser measuring devices. I recently tested the longest range laser rangefinder, the IonJet8

• 8000 yard max range

• MIL-STD-810H compliant

• Built in ballistic calculator with up to 10 bullet profiles

FINAL CLUE

This company was founded by George Eastman in 1892 in Rochester, NY and became one of the largest photographic film and comera companies in the world.

DiscoveryOpt Interview this Friday

BRAND CONTEST CLUE

This ride-share and transportation company who’s name comes from the German word for “over” or “above”. But in German, the word is spelled with an umlaut.

DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE

Tesla RoboTaxi

Tesla Robotaxi is a ride-hailing service operated by Tesla, Inc. that uses its vehicles equipped with its Full Self-Driving (FSD) software. You can download the App now on Apple and Android.

The service launched last year in Austin, Texas. It currently operates in Texas in Austin, Dallas and Houston, and in Miami, Florida. In 2024, Tesla unveiled the CyberCab, a 2-seater purpose-built vehicle. This week, I saw one in the wild. I was surprised to see a driver in it. But like Waymo when it first rolled out, San Francisco required a human “driver” as a safety precaution.

• No steering wheel

• 2-seater coup

• No rear window

• No side mirrors

• Inductive charging (park space auto-charge)

• ~297 mile chage range

Robotaxi was a software idea announced by Elon back in 2016. It was intended to allow Tesla car owners with FSD software to automatically “rent” out their cars when they weren’t driving them.

The Robottaxi and Cybercab have the potential to be yet another huge market disruption like Tesla cars were to Detroit. Or how Starlink is poised to disrupt internet and cell phone companies.

FINAL CLUE

This ride-share company was started by San Francisco tech executives Garrett Camp and Travis Kalanick in 2010 when they couldn’t hail a cab during New Year’s Eve and were annoyed at the cost of hiring a limo.

Along with competitors like “Lyft”, they created the Ride-Share marketplace as a way around the municipal monopolies of the taxi and the limousine industry.
