I could identify with the Miles completely cuz I had a bed hopping friend that would always ditch the rest of us for any girl that would give it up. So for me one of the funniest lines was, "Listen, man. Cammi gets off in an hour, so I was thinking I'd just hang around and have a drink, and make sure she gets home safe"
Of course, "No way! Anyone orders Merlot I'm leaving! I am not drinking any beep Merlot!! But I think everyone loved that one. -

Miles: (Smelling) There is some strawberry..maybe a little citrus.passion fruit.(puts finger up to ear), Oh, there's just the faintest soupcon of likeasparagus, and there's just aa flutter, of like aa nutty eatam cheese.
Why would he be able to smell all of that in a glass of wine? Classic. -

And at the end of the whole teaching him to be an insufferable wine snob, "are you chewing gum?"
This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here. -

There's no such thing as eatam cheese. Miles is probably referring to Edam cheese, a well known but terribly overrated cheese variety from my country. (Edam is a small town.) Which makes the joke even more perfect, because Miles is such a snob as to suggest he can not only smell a cheese flavor in the wine (which of course is silly), he also pretends he is able to distinguish between various sorts of cheese. -

"You didn't get any did you??
awkward silence
you're a homo"
lol, giamatti's response was gold too, on the commentary they said most of it was improvised. "yeah, i'm a homo, yeah. write out my gay confession and i'll sign it".
