Host reveals she's been pouring boxed wine into fancy French wine bottles "for a while now."
If you've been to dinner at Terri Richard's lakeside cottage recently (or even not-too-recently), you're likely to have enjoyed a delicious meal and a couple of glasses of exquisite French wine. Uh, check that last point. Because pretty much as long as she can remember, Terri's been filling those pretty-looking French wine bottles (and your wine glass, too!) with ordinary boxed Merlot from, well... who knows where. "I just couldn't live with the guilt anymore," Terry admitted. Why the vino switcheroo? "The labels are so pretty, but what idiot is going to pay $25 for a bottle of wine. Not this idiot." Hard to argue with either point, really. And call us crazy, but the bottle actually does seem to make the wine taste better.
