Anyone Remember the Movie "Disclosure", about a company that made "drives"...
starring Michael Douglas and Demi Moore?
A fine bottle of Chardonnay by Pahlmeyer figured heavily in the plot, as it IS extremely hard to find, and Demi's character claimed she sent her secretary out to the corner wine store to just "pick up a bottle".
After viewing the movie I was intrigued and went looking for the Pahlmeyer label. Couldn't find it in stores. Finally found it on the web... you have to join the "club" for the privilege of buying a case in advance.
Last week I was in Riverside, CA, and ate at a restaurant (Duane's) in the Mission Inn.
Spotted Pahlmeyer Chardonnay on the wine list. And just had to try it out to see what it was like...
Great Chardonnay! But it cost me $110 for the privilege ;-)
