Wine, what are saving it for?

Foodie -- great point about the boomers/yuppies cashing out. Too bad most people in the wine industry just don't get it! Listening to the wine industry speak, you'd think that baby boomers were the only market out there. Case in point -- a quote in the San Francisco Weekly from a wine retailer, "Concentrating on the 20-35 age group is beating your head against the wall. Let's face it, Gen-X numbers are not as large as baby boomer numbers. The 40-55 age group has more money, and they already know what beer tastes like."

With attitudes like this, I know that I would have given up on wine years ago if I didn't love it so much....
