a little background. i'm not new to the Internet or searching it. i'm
also not really a true novice when it comes to wine. i live in san
francisco, drink wine pretty regularly, and have done the wine country
thing about 6 times. most of the wine i "discover" comes from dining
out and trying it with my meal. i also try and taste whatever other
people are having at my table. after the meal i try and find out where
to buy it.

i've had some pretty bad luck. the ferry building in san francsio has a
good wine place and i've been able to find some of my discoveries
there.

right now i'm looking for a 2002 cab from an Argentinian label called
Aleph. i can't find the stuff anywhere online.

my question is does anyone have some good inside info on why this is so
hard or where i should better look?

much thanks

Probably the earliest flyswatters were nothing more than some sort of
striking surface attached to the end of a long stick.

Cporro,
Winesearcher shows 2002 Aleph at Wine Steward in Pleasanton.
How to find wines is being covered in the FAQs we're trying to develop.
If you look back a few days to Mark Lipton's FAQ v4, it's section 2.
Good luck!

Some wines are produced only for restaurants.

I see the Aleph cab at Artisans on Web:
http://www.aoweb.com/gwplatense.html. They appear to be located at Pier
23 in San Francisco. Disclaimer: I've never heard of this company
before--I just found it from a Google search for "Aleph cabernet Argentina".

Saw this exact wine on the sale rack today at Andronico's in the Sunset
(Funston and Irving). It was marked down to $17 (approx). I would have
picked it up, but I'm awash in cab right now. Go get it, cporro!
