WITHSTAND

[cpurvis]

IK, fully believing that wines made from grapes should reflect the fact that grapes are fruit and not wood, and with only a slight reservation 'bout the inclusion of Languedoc wines, I hereby affirm the WITHSTAND position & respectfully request my membership card.

I also maintain that WW's cranial cavity & his statements on this matter are likely clouded by smoke from his unfortunate use of mesquite rather than 100% hickory in his recent fall from the Slimfast wagon. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img]

BTW, the results of Canadaigua & other M&A activity (noted again today under the Zin thread) will only serve to prove the sensibility of the WITHSTAND position.
