Yard Sale find - help for a novice?

I have to back foodie 100% on this one Steve. Reading can teach you about the make up of the wine, and what characteristics to look for in different wines, as well as history etc, but nothing compares to sitting down with some nice wines at home, or going to tastings (which are a huge amount of fun I might add) and really tasting a lot of wines. What is MOST important to remember is that wine doesn't have to be a sophisticated snobby affair, have fun with it!! You will learn more and it will be a lot more enjoyable!

PS- Foodie, do you have the info on the AWS??

Oh Steve, one more thing, alot of people get stuck thinking that all "good" wines must be expensive. This is not true. Read back through the tasting notes in the folders on this forum for some good QPR wines to get you started.
