Anyone else seen the current print ads for this winery? They depict what appears to be the shroud of Turin (the supposed burial cloth of Jesus with a "natural" photographic image of him) with not Jesus but a bottle of St Supery Cabernet on it.
I am a cynical, irreverent Pagan BUT this cannot play well in a lot of arenas, hunh? It seems like just plain stupid to me. IK, you are a practicing Catholic (hope you get it right some day, ba-da-bing!), what do you think of this?

Haven't seen it, but when I do will raise appropriate hell.

I haven't seen it either, but it sounds truly stupid. Now that you mention the ad, whose the Saint in Saint Supery?

And I've just been plugging St. Supery Sauvignon Blanc as my favorite domestic S.B.
