Hi any chance that I can order 12 bottles of Santa Cristina and then get these sent to Australia?

Thanks for all your work Gary, this is a truly educational program for all wine lovers around the world.

I followed your recommendation on the Casa Marin P.N. and I have to say that I was completly satisfied with it, even more I went to their winery in Chile and tasted all the varieties and all of them are truly amazing, the best winery in Chile so far.

Thanks a lot

p.s. Is there a specific age vines have to be before they can be labeled “old vines”?

Yup, I like it… Damn that young wine that catches you by the nay nay…. New adjective for you… Cuban Cigar (disclaimer, I have never enjoyed a Cuban– in the states –). I think of the languedoc…. Perhaps you should give it a shot… In front of camera of course. Top down, chrome spinnin’ CB

Fifteen wines! Impressive. For myself, I have been to tastings where I have had 12-15 wines and that seems okay for my palate. Perhaps at the end there is some “palate fatigue”. Gary, you say 40-50 is your limit? Well, your palate is pretty “buff” I guess. I don’t think I could handle that (although I would LOVE to try).

Fluffy-
You Rule- I love Verona but have not been there for the tasting event- I drank a ton of white wine in Venice- though generally I stick to reds- The whites were great because you could really taste the fruit and with no oak on most it was great- I believe they make it or store it in clay canisters that are buried- but I could have been drunk.

I was in Sorrento this summer for a few weeks and also enjoyed alot of their local wine- Scenery makes it all taste better!
