Replying to a comment on:

Sauvignon (Free verse) by Dovina

Try my L’orangerie Ninety-Four I’ve saved it for this special night Loire Valley southwest of Paris and tell me how it feels So he raised a glass swirled expertly inspected legs inserted his member sensing bouquet “Full-bodied, fine” he said “You’ve a French sensibility” “Thank you,” I sighed breathing heavily He tasted, smiled bid me drink ahead a gentleman to be sure When we’d drunk our fill and said goodnight I returned bottle to rack brought from hiding the empty Two-Buck-Chuck and put it in the trash

Sorry. I'll rephrase: Do you personally know someone who would both
a) claim to be knowledgeable about wines, and
b) mistake a $2 bottle of wine for some aged French Sauvignon?

Of course, that's not the point. The point is it's a metaphor for guys who are dogs, didn't I see the whole inserting his member bit, wasn't that clever? No, it wasn't particularly. And no, for a metaphor to work it's GOT TO WORK IN REAL LIFE (ie, wine) before working in metaphorland (ie, sex). Otherwise I could just write a poem about how my rugged good looks are a metaphor for my winning personality.

Anyway, answer the question for a dinar. I know you think it's some clever word-trap, so I'll go first: No, I don't know anybody who would do both of those things.
