I am more of a Pinot Noir drinker (BR Cohn Pinot should be out, I NEED
to road trip soon) but Rosenblum is close by (Alameda) so I can drop
in to pick up my wines and sample a little. That and they do make some
pretty tasty wines.

The best Cab I have tasted in recent memory is the 2002 Baldacci
"Brenda" Cabernet Sauvignon, just released and only by mail or at the
winery. The Signorello "Padrone" is a close second.

Only recently have had the proper storage and available funds to start
looking at the french wines. I have not purchased any, yet. I want to
taste them first and finding a tasting of the first growth is a little
hard.

I only have storage for about 100 bottles (currently full). I plan to
get a much larger cooler as soon as my sister gets her "lovely" piece
of furniture out of my dining room.
