This is the first of what may become a series (irregularly published) called What Would They Drink? where I’ll pick characters from a movie, TV show, book, etc. and say what kind of wine they’d drink if they were wine drinkers. Hilarity will surely ensue.*
* Actually, this is almost certainly only interesting to me.
LOST Characters
Jack: Something about that old Bronco he drives makes me think he’d drink off the beaten path, appreciates older things. Maybe properly-aged Hunter Valley Semillons.
Kate: Living on the run, Kate probably buys her wine at the convenience store. Rex Goliath Chardonnay.
…
Sawyer: During all his time as a con-man seducing the ladies, he’s secretly developed a fondness for ice-cold Pinot Grigio.
…
Locke/Black Smoke Monster: Cahors
…
Hurley: Chateau d’Yquem. Sweet and yummy and he’s got the money.
…
Benjamin Linus: He seems like the German Riesling type to me.
…
Richard Alpert: Madeira, the longest-lived wines in the world.
…
Desmond: Moriah Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
…
Rousseau: ’85 Rhone
