    You said the CKCs should leave a comment so here I am. My 23rd B-Day was the 14th and I had a nice 1998 Pol Roger, that’s some good stuff. And Yes, I plan on buying the book.

  • JordanW

    QOTD: Depends on the content… to be honest, I’m not going to buy it just because it has GVs name on it. I’m sure the content is awesome but if there is not any wines I can get in Ontario then I’d have to flip through it in the store and see if anything jumps out at me.

  • Benji-Croatia

    You are a genius, man!

    Thnx for all good time…

    and greetings from Croatia 🙂

  • BobbyTiger

    Weekends are reserved for the sparkling wines at my house. Usually, a Cooks Brute….(sorry, but I find it very crisp, with a fairly good nose, and oh yeah…..it costs about 6 bones). Love Argentine wines, and will for sure get a bottle (or two) of the Luigi Bosca La Linda Brute. We drink a bit of their Melbec Reserve which is quite good. QOTD????? What do you think?? We will be honored to buy one……ok, two of them. Congratulations!
