  • Boo Sancerre. I had a good one at a tasting a few days ago. Not super citrusy, more minerally.

    You say twins, I say Doublemint

    I know you love both Sancerre and Vouvray Gary, as do I, but Robert Parker says that that there is a lot of crap coming out of these 2 appellations and that you have to be selective with the producer. He gives Boulay 4 stars out of 5 and Natter 3. Both wines in 2005 vintage got 91 pts.
    QOTD: The Pitons in St. Lucia because I just climbed the Gros Piton, going back to climb Petit Piton. joel

    $60 and 170 points? Ouch. So, we shouldn’t necessarily put huge stock in the producer or the place of origin or the price?makes wine-buying an adventure. Luckily, we have people like you to point us toward (or away from) wines.
