Another possible reference for this guy's name is the old western series Bonanza. The family showcased in the show was the Cartwrights led by the father who was played by actor Lorne Green. The show was also a major bouncing point for the famous and beloved actor Michael Landon who went on to play the father in Little House on the Prairie and the angel in Highway to Heaven and was greatly mourned by many, including myself, when he died of pancreatic cancer in 1991. Anyway, that moves a bit off topic.

I'm not sure what the wine reference is here, but an earlier poster mentioned the Chinese restaurant incident with a waiter yelling out Cartwright! Well, the Cartwrights in Bonanza had a cook named Hop Sing. So likely the Seinfeld scene was a reference to the show Bonanza.

If anyone would like to further research the topic, here's the link to the wiki page for the show. Wish I knew a bit more but this was more of my mother's genre. She used to drive me insane by making me sit and watch old westerns, including this one, and I tended to run off or not pay enough attention. But if more info comes to light, let us know. =)
