When I've been in France and had moderately priced ($20) wines, they have been really wonderful. When I've brought some bottles back to the states and opened them for special occasions, they turn out much less impressive. Of course the professionals probably have better methods of transport, but even store-bought or restaurant French wines don't seem as good here as they do at the source. If true, it also means that American wines may not taste as good in foreign countries as they do here. Anybody else have this experience?
