#9  "the appropriate quaff would be Mogen David"

To a genuine Fluffian like me, the thought of chasing down a cheese steak with that stuff is enough to gag a maggot. Yakkkk!!

#8  A nice red "Ripple" would go well, as well as a rare "Sly Fox" circa 1967.

#7  Lets see - the obvious choice is a haughty French Bourdeaux like Petrus or Le Pin but since this is a guy with a newly found Jewish background (not Irish) then the appropriate quaff would be Mogen David, wouldn't it?

BTW, I know the Schmidts from Skull and Bones, Mr Davis. He had a deadly squash backhand...

#1  You'll want a red wine, preferably something with some body (to work with & through the grease & cheese). My initial suggestion was going to be Mad Dog; otherwise, I like Yellow Tail's Shiraz and Frontera's Merlot/Cabernet blend -- a large bottle can be had at most Sam's Clubs for $8.
