The Bukowski Principle

The famous writer and drunk Charles Bukowski once said that if you see a long line of people, avoid it. Go instead to the thing that is the least popular. This is how he was successful betting on horses. This principle is an immutable rule of wine buying. This is why Muscadet, dry Sherry and thousands of obscure varietals are so damned good and affordable. And they always will be, as long as celebrity eludes them.
