No shame at all. If it makes people happy great and pays the rent so you can support smaller producers even better.

I hear Layer Cake is another big seller.

Layer Cake sells well also, but really not in the league of The Prisoner in our store.
Thank you Father Dentice for absolving me of my sins. I'll be able to sleep at night without visions of that black and white label strutting before my eyes.
Free! free! at last.
 
I am slightly surprised there is not a cease and desist order from Foothills Brewing Company out of North Carolina as they make a stout beer called Sexual Chocolate of some notoriety. It can in some years be a very good beer.

What about guns? You gotta have guns in there somewhere to sell out. Selling out's okay, as long as nobody gets hurt (well, at least not permanently).

And speaking of Layer Cake, I read somewhere that Philippe Melka has joined their winemaking team. Does this mean we'll now get his Napa Valley Cult Wine expertise with every bottle of Layer Cake Primitivo or Malbec we buy? This would be like getting Michel Roland to make your Aligoté, no? Or maybe like hiring Gangloff to apply the bondo to the parking lot dings and dents in your Bugatti. Not that Mr. M wouldn't do a bang-up job of it (Lou could probably retire on the dough he'll make from the case stacks of MelkaCake in his shop) but wouldn't the consultant's time be better spent working on wines with more glitz, more sizzle, more bling, more pointy? I'm just sayin'.

-Eden (is it morally acceptable to spoofulate a lesser wine, since it's not as if it'd ever be considered noble and held up to intense scrutinizing or anything)

Dear, dear. If Dave Phinney were alive today he'd be spinning in his grave. No, wait....

Anyway, "The Prisoner" is what happens when you get a degree in political science and then work for Mondavi.
