"But the central mystery for oenophiles has been slower to unravel: What types of wines might Kurniawan have actually poured into those bottles?"

I’m not really interested on whom he “swindled” or “doped” but how he did it (as stated in the blog, Kelly posted).

I'm sorry that he was forging bottles on such a scale, but at least I got some great ideas on how to decorate my bathroom...
