I had a glass of wine recently at a cafe, and it reminded me that too much knowledge can be a detriment.

Buying wine either at a retail store or in a restaurant can be risky. Either you know very little about wine and are willing to accept being ripped off, or you know so much that you get irritated when your order is not what you expected.
