    Gary…great show today, and I must say this one hit the cord with me. First let me say sorry to hear of your loss. It never is easy, I always like to think that I was honored to know someone….we all give something special.

    You are right on with learning to listen to your palate. I tried for the last few years to force myself to taste things in wine. I eventually gave up and just began enjoying them even more. I realized that you cannot force flavors, and if you just enjoy and let it flow you will find yourself sooner.

    I will definitely seek out the torrontes.

    Battle Creek, MI——–we need new laws here so we can get shipments.
