  • Why would I ever want to slow down my consumption of alcohol? Blasphemy! On a serious note, I learned loooong ago that for every alcoholic drink I have, I need to drink a glass of water. Hangovers aren't very fun. And I do enjoy a Campari and soda every now again (especially in... Read more

  • Woodward Canyon Winery Washington State Chardonnay 2007

    Snoothrank: Starting at $35.95

    While not as complex and delicate as a white Burgundy like Mersault, this wine has fresh bold flavors and is a delicious and balanced mouthful. Some buttery, oaky qualities but it has a spine and a drier finish that keeps things in balance. Well worth the price in my opinion.

  • GregT, K Vintners makes a good syrah that I've had called, I believe, "The Beautiful". Around $50 retail a couple of years ago, though I haven't checked recently (nor on Snooth--feeling lazy today...). I guess I first gravitated towards Columbia Valley and Walla Walla, particularly,...

  • Look at this link: http://www.wallawallawine.com/wineries I thought I was familiar with a lot of the wineries but looking at that list, apparently I'm not because off the top I can only remember the wines from about half of them. Anyhow, here are a few impressions. Woodward... Read more

  • Woodward Canyon http://www.woodwardcanyon.com/content.cfm?id=15 and Leonetti http://www.leonetticellar.com/ are my favorites in that area (and probably for the whole state of Washington). Woodward Canyon has chardonnays and cabs that I've enjoyed very much over the past couple of... Read more

  • So DIS, is your interest coincidental, or was Philip asking in the first place as your proxy? I also like Bordeaux reds, very much, and have stored them, and California reds, and the odd dessert white (sauternes and trockenbeerenausleses) and fortified wines (ports and madeiras) for...
