Then, order a wine that you don't know anything about, start talking about the tannins, this or that taste while dropping in the random word like, "mmmmmm, is that a hint of kahki?" "Am I detecting a little flannel? maybe 1990?" By that time the waiter thinks you know your stuff and you can just have fun bs'in the rest of the time.

I think elmer's would be a great idea too :-) Totally, "I think I taste a little Elmer's on the tip of my tongue."

Great stuff guys.
yeah....and most of those waiters would not say a word....then probably use it on their customers later thinking it's a new term
