When I first received this bottle of Bordeaux in the mail, its Bad Boy name and whimsical label, which features a black sheep and an arrow labeled "garage," meant little to me. But after doing some research, I discovered the whole thing makes quite a bit of sense.

If you are investing in wine then Provenance i s essential. Provenance, from the French provenir , "to come from", refers to the history of your wine: where, when and by whom it was made, where it has been stored, who has owned it and where it has been shipped to.
