For a wine illiterate you sure stumbled upon a fairly decent wine cellar. Would be happy to have a bottle of everyone on them in mine. Maybe someone will tackle responding to each and everyone of them, but I think you would do better just spending some time looking at the various postings on this board. Many of your wines have been recently discussed, and food pairings, which also should be of interest to you too, are discussed as well.

The best way to learn about the wines on your list is for me to meet you in Brooklyn so that we can open and taste them.
Brooklyn is my home town, so just tell me where and when and I shall find you....
How and why are these wines on your list?

Can I come too? Was born in Brooklyn back in '39.

Innkeeper, you got me by six years, you old codger.
My home was the lower economic scale neighborhood of what is now been incorporated into Park Slope (Union St. Fourth and Fifth Ave.).
