Adam Curry recounts his formal marriage proposal to Tina at the Michelin-starred Mistral restaurant in Bellagio. The event featured a menu by Chef Ettore Boccia, a pioneer of Italian molecular cuisine, and was accompanied by a live orchestra playing the theme from Love Story. The celebration included "prison wine" produced by inmates in Tuscany, though the hosts joke about the romantic nature of the setting.

A Denver-based company called Replica claims to use laboratory analysis to recreate expensive wines at a lower price point. John C. Dvorak, a professional wine judge, deconstructs the claim as a marketing scam, explaining that the complexity of yeast and fermentation makes it impossible to chemically map and perfectly replicate high-end wine.
