Yeah, I think this one is worth checking out. Interesting and different, but it has a new world edge. Whatever though. It was really good. One of those wines that has a beginning, a middle, and an end.

I like what this Franchetti fellow is up to. Bdx blends with lots of CF and PV in Tuscany and Nerello on Mt. Etna. Yum.

Awesome dude. Glad to hear that you liked those wines. I dig them and they are cheap. Love Kermit Lynch. There is no substitute for good taste. It's weird because I get about 100 hits a day or something like that, but no one ever comments, and I wonder who everyone is. I know it's not all my Mom, you know?

"Who the fuck reads this thing anyways?"

Err ... I guess that'd be me for one. I found your blog a while back searching for a moderately obscure wine (the name escapes me). I liked what you wrote about it, then liked the style of your other selections.

We keep a bottle or two of the Perrin Cotes du Rhone and the Now & Zen as house wines, both based on your initial recommendation. I've also picked up a few CDP reds on account of your influence.

As for wine writing, I regularly read your blog, Jason's blog, and Kermit Lynch's flyer.

So, by way of thanks and since you asked,
