Smoke and a Coke....is it just me?

[derivation]

I read the article in CA. That guy has a huge wine collection also and he says he would rather have the coke with a cigar. The guy doing the interview thought he was joking when he said it. I think coke is great with a cigar.

yeah, I'm a huge wine fan, but find it doesn't seem to compliment cigars very well. Seems like the flavors involved don't mix all that well, but that's just my opinion. I know a lot of people enjoy strong wines, like cab sav, with wine.

I actually have a cab franc that I tasted a while ago with a very smokey/cedarish flavor that I've been meaning to try with a cigar. Just need to let the wine age a bit more.
