QOTD: 2002 Feudi San Gregorio – Greco di Tufo Southern Italian White (fancy that) with great balance. I can’t find it for $12 anymore

QOTD – probably either a QupÃ© Syrah (Bien Nacido vineyard) 2003, or a rather inexpensive Juan Gil Jumilla 2004 (both bought at WL, but I’ve been sitting on the QupÃ© for a little while. Anyone had the Jumilla? haven’t seen Gary rate any….

39 days so far this year. $12, hmmm. . . I had a glass of Domaine Tempier Rose at Chez Panisse that was that much. But for a bottle at $12 the best has been a 2004 Champalou Vouvray Cuvee des Fondraux; ripe and delicious with wonderful acidity that kept me coming back.
