RE: Blind tasting...

I would enjoy trying that experiment. Years ago we did the same thing with a bottle of Charles Krug Burgundy, maybe $3/bottle in the mid 80's. Brown bagged it and served it at the end of the evening at a fancy wine dinner. Most thought it was a Grand Cru Burgundy. Of course they had consumed a large amount of wine by then.
I would also put my wife up to the challenge. She doesn't know labels or prices but will invariably turn her nose up at a cheap bottle of wine. But then we're not big on soft fruity forward wines.
