Barely long enough, but passes, also date is fine. I'd suggest and alt hook using the word "wine bottle", I don't understand the pipe through Balthazar, which is not explained in text, neither. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 16:20, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
- How about ALT1:"... that two 12-liter bottles (Balthazars) of Grace Family Vineyards cabernet and their second label, Blank, drew a $160,000 auction bid at the Naples Winter Wine Festival??" There's characters to spare, so explaining in the text is fine. And, a Balthazar is a very big bottle of wine (it's the equivalent of 16 standard bottles, or a case and a third); that's explained in the linked wine bottle article.
