1. The only wines that can carry the name Bourdeaux are made in the Bourdeaux region of France. What is the term for a wine in the style of red Bourdeaux that's produced outside this region?
That'd be "meritage," which is also the name of a great restaurant at 20th and Lombard.
2. In the movie Sideways, Paul Giamatti's character, Miles Raymond, is an unpublished author. What is the name of his novel?
