Time for some thanks, Steve, for your article from the other Wine Rambler. What I especially liked about it - and there's much to like - were the honest and straightforward descriptions of wines that didn't turn out so well. I would love to get this more, at winery visits or at tastings: "And here's one that went wrong...", not only because it would take some of the low-level bullshit out of wine-speak, but also because I think it would teach you about the component parts of what makes a wine good.
