Wine and Wealth. In the Evening Standard’s What the wines in Succession reveal about the Roys, Hannah Crosbie writes about how the fictional Roy family drinks wine in HBO’s Succession. From $80,000 wine to “Malbec morons”, cheap Prosecco to biodynamic Spätburgunder, wine punctuates every meeting, incites every infidelity, and underpins every interaction of HBO’s Succession…. Where for the average drinker, the celebratory opening of a special bottle is designated for life’s important moments, the Roys drink fine wine so often, any sense of celebration is abstracted into something meaningless.

Is the Wine Store (or whatever it's called) Crown owned? Also, as a non-Crown corp. how did Loblaws/No Frills get exclusivity on wine/beer sales? Also, also, I heard that 7-11 might be granted a license to sell alcohol in Ontario. Is that true? And will they stock anything besides Colt 45 and Olde English?

First, what was the horrible red Tom was trying to push at his party? Second, how do YOU feel about privatizing Elsie?
