toast9897 Apr 30, 2004	i had a teacher who is very religious try to answer this... she never got the answer
(user deleted) May 01, 2004	Fun teaser, but I never would have gotten that! I guess that's why it's under 'Trivia.'
(user deleted) May 01, 2004	Clever, Rows! Are you paying visits 'to the vine' for inspiration?
Palsha May 01, 2004	That was such an awesome teaser! Very orignal I might add!
Rowsdower May 02, 2004	I return your toast, Griphook! And thanks for all of your kind comments, I'm glad you like it. This teaser was inspired by one of Mad-Ade's works of art.
(user deleted) May 04, 2004	I'm with Griphook.
jimbo May 07, 2004	Nice one. I don't get the title. I did get the answer because I recognised 4 of them but I didn't know that the Balthazar and the Malachi were bottles.
hottie13 May 16, 2004	i thought this teaser was fun. it was hard though. great job! keep up the good work.
doggyxp Jul 23, 2004	Which of Mad-Ade's inspired you? L'Chaim! (To life) Cheers
username Aug 18, 2004	extremely, extremely difficult. you'd definitely have to be a christian (or perhaps jewish) to be able to get this right. I only know a tad bit of the christian religion. and i don't even know what this was talking about either.
I_am_the_Omega Sep 26, 2004	No, you just have to be a heavy drinker. Read the answer before posting next time, thx. Also, six of them have "M's" in their names
phildunphy Sep 27, 2004	Cannot understand why people found this so hard !! That said it is a Great teaser
Rowsdower Oct 04, 2004	Thanks for all of your comments (hic) and I don't think that (hic) you half to be (hic) Kwistian or a hebby dwinker to get this one (hic), but it is under twibia for a weason (hic...thud.)
strzynski Nov 22, 2004	Just one problem... there is one size larger than the Nebuchadnezzer - it's the Melchior, who also appears in the Bible
litteacher Dec 23, 2004	Guess I gotta check out the wine cellar more carefully! Tough one for me.
goldmare Jan 21, 2005	Right, being Christian has nothing to do with it. In fact, a good Christian would be unlikely as to have a clue about this one. I sure didn\'t. Even after the hint I had no idea. Probably because I\'ve never drunk alcohol in my life. But it was a good teaser. Very challenging.
nunya Jan 22, 2005	i agree this was a hard one,the title was no help.being poor white trash i had no clues on champagne bottle sizes.learned something new.
sweetime Jun 15, 2005	i was going with trying to work out which ones had been betrayed, but have no idea about the bible so didn't get very far...
smarty_blondy Oct 01, 2005	Original, creative and clever! Keep them coming.
metallicman Nov 17, 2005	Nice teaser. I picked out the strange looking names, because I thought those might be it, and I got four of them! Good job, really interesting.
