Critic to the Wine Critic

[winoweenie]

" the more you're into wine the more you gravitate to European wines". Guess I'm an abberation there ole Buck-Snort. The Bordeauxs in my cellar are from atypical vintages that are more new world than old in style. I also tend to believe you can find exceptional wines from ALL wine regions today. The Bordeaux vintages that've found their way into my cellar were the 82s,89s,95s and 2000s. I've found far more great wines from your neck of the woods on an ongoing basis than from Bordeaux. The one exception is wines from the Rhone. I've been in love with them since finding the 78 Guigals. Tho we're making some killer Syrahs in this country our best fall short of the best coming from that valley. Jes call me a leather-tongued, Cali-Lovin', Know-Nuttin' Okie with no taste.
