Hi Everyone,

I'm totally bored at work this Friday, so i thought i'd share this with all yous out there who, like me, want to learn about wine quickly and have fun:

Um, Frank Prial, the NYTime Wine Critic, has recently, like a month or two ago, started conducting tastings with 3 other panelists and sometimes a guest panelist. No, of course they aren't open to the public, but you can read, every other Wednesday in the NYTimes' Dining Section, the results of these tastings. Why listen to one wine critic, like Mr. Parker, Ms. Robinson, or whomever...when you can read the opinions of 4 or 5 people?

When you can't go to tastings, why not join the virtual tastings every Wednesday in the NY Times? It's a nice, more democratic way to learn about wines because you're not being bludgeoned with just one person's opinion.

Okay, well, i'm gonna go back to being bored. Just thought i'd share something that i enjoy doing,and something that's helpful for learning about wine, with all of you, who may want a fun way to learn more.

Cheers,
Brett Nicole Fangi

ps. Amanda Hesser, the only female taster, will usually write an article on the foods that can be made to compliment the wine they've just reviewed. So it's like a 2-4-1!
