IK, I didn't say it was bad, just that it shook up the old guard Napa guys in a big way. On your "chablis" note, don't you agree that "Merlot" has become the new "Burgundy", as in a generic word for red wine amongst casual drinkers? I have seen over and over again people telling their friends in the store, "That Rioja (or Salice or Bardolino or whatever) is the best 'Merlot' I've ever had".....
