Got my April issue of @Decanter. Finally, a wine publication with articles I really want to read rather than just a bunch of fluff.

[GreatFermentations @GFermentations]

Keeping fingers crossed that I will get allocated 6 bottles of @BedrockWineCo Syrah. Any 6 will do.

[GreatFermentations @GFermentations]

Spring release/allocation season has arrived. Yesterday, Bedrock. Today, Failla. Tomorrow?

Getting into white Rhones these days. Last weekend a Villard Condrieu. Tonight Nistrepais Costieres de Nimes (90% Grenache Blanc). Fantastic

@drvino I think 2009 Bordeaux has plenty of "buzz", but Parker is losing much of his.

[GreatFermentations @GFermentations]

Holy Shit. I disappear for 2 months and my number of twitter followers has tripled! This whole social media thing is easy!

@drvino I guess they ask the rat if it wants cereal for b'fast or an egg, cheese, and sausage sandwich with lots of coffee.

[GreatFermentations @GFermentations]

@drvino how about the hangover?

[GreatFermentations @GFermentations]

@tomcwark dumb for creating the nasty blog posting? Or for thinking the guy was legit Sommelier w/ doctorate from Harvard?

[GreatFermentations @GFermentations]
