You sure know how to crank up the envy quotient in a semi-senile old
guy. The whites don't really do much for me, but the Beaujolais
certainly do.

One of the best five-day holidays I ever had was a tour through
Beaujolais and Burgundy back around 1980. Did stops at Lameloise,
Alain Carton and Le Freres Troisgros. Had some mighty fine wines at
those places.

Now, for my current low cost table wines--

Have been drinking a Chilean offering called VEO Grande (Vinedos
Errazuriz Ovalle). It comes in two flavors, white is Chardonnay and
red is Cab Sauvignon (Colchagua Valley). Both are lightly oaked and
nicely representative of the varietals.

I get'em at Sam's Club for the hardly exorbitant price of $6.62 US per
bottle in either flavor.

Nice list. Is this the white ESJ Los Robles Viejos? Agree re the
Gobelsburg GV, Brun, and Vissoux. Have the L-P Allees, but haven't
opened yet.

Sorry I forgot it was my job to start this list every month or two!

For summer, I'll list 2 crisp whites, 2 fresh roses, and 2 light reds:

2004Branger " Terroir Les Gras Moutons" Muscadet
2005 Terres Dorees (JP Brun) Beaujolais Blanc
2006 Chivite "Gran Fuedo" Rosado

I checked out Chamber Street Wines and saw exactly what your talking
about! Don't get me wrong I do love to have French wines, but not every
night! When I saw that there was only one Argentinean Malbec and only two
Australian Shiraz I knew this mailing list wouldn't be for me. I would love
to find a wine mailing list that was WIDE OPEN! This is the one quality
that separates most wine drinkers from most domestic (US) beer drinkers. A
Bud drinker is a Bud drinker and nothing else.

Yes, but what does that have to do with beer?

There are basically two categories of good wine shops IMHO- the bigger
operations (Zachys, WineLibrary, K&L, Winex, Sams, Astor, etc) that
try to do some of everything , and the more boutique styled operations
such as Chambers. The latter don't try to be all things, but
concentrate on the type of wines they particularly enjoy.

I'm on mailing lists of many shops, of both types. The difference is
that with Zachys etc I tend to watch mailers for wines I already know,
while with Chambers I might be more likely to take a chance on an
unknown wine based on their notes(as I know David's and Jamie's tastes
tend to match well with mine, at least in Loire, Austria, Beaujolais,
etc). If your tastes are closer to Australia or Argentina, you might
try to find a boutique wine shop with those as areas of concentration
(Garagiste or Southern Hemisphere perhaps?).

One size does not fit all!

By the way, if Malbec is a fave, today (Tuesday) is 15% off day at
Astor (astorwines.com). It's often not practical to pay shipping on
less expensive bottles (the $1.69 Lost Vineyards will be more than $5
with ground shipping). But if your state typically charges sales tax
on wine, non-taxed out of state bottles usually have a breakeven point
where shipping is less than sales tax.
