SEATTLE -- You run into the most interesting people on the PAX show floor, the sort of people who like the retrogames podcast that you make and want to give you free wine. As it turns out, Mike James is not only a classic gamer, he's also a winemaker, and he's blended his two loves almost in the way you might blend a cabernet and a petite syrah to create 8-Bit Vintners.

He passed on a bottle of his first release, appropriately called "Player 1." I'm sure we'll drink this on the next Retronauts.
