I’ve heard a few good things about each of the above listed wines. It would be nice to see you do an episode with four or five great wines and recommend all of them. Even if you don’t do these tomorrow, keep them in mind for the future.

Please try:

Chateau De Francs Cotes De Francs Les Cerisiers 2003 – Library Code: 5171

A 2003 Bordeaux for $14.99 that got a 90 on the WS. Is this wine for real?

Love the new format. The quick links are great. Good luck trying to select the wine for tomorrow. You are getting a lot of great suggestions. It should be a classic episode. Another idea for the white board–”I’m with Stupid——->”

First my 16 year old daughter thought the color of the first wine looked like…well…aaaaa….”Pee”.
Just thought you would like to add a new descriptor to your list.

QOD:

I would like to request you try # Library Code: 9985 Teruzzi Vernaccia Di San Gimignano Terre Di Tufi because I love the name… which is why I bought a bottle of it.

LOVE the new format. Props to the team.

I have to echo Kahuna – http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=30651 – been drinking a lot of PS and I wouldn’t buy one this expensive unless I heard something good about it from someone I trust.
