How did people do with some of the limited items from the last Classics catalogue? I was after the '99 Palmer but was shut out. I did a bit better, however,...
Sorry - I give up on Pelee Island. I used to like them very much. All the whites I've had of theirs lately (last 3-4yrs?) have been way over-sulphited. I'm...
but unfortunately they keep screwing up. And, even worse, repeating the same mistakes (particularly those on which they ignored my entreaties in the past). The...
... That's unbelievable. Especially the Port!!! I've had it happen to me once, but assumed it was an isolated error. Guess not! There *are* some LCBO...

The LCBO may be concerned with CSPC, UPC, set design, and databases. But they are not wine merchants. When I enter Sherry Lehmann, or Morell, or Astor Place,...
Just had what might be the cheapest 750ml bottle of wine ever sold by our friends (at least in recent times)! $3.45 for a 1997 Gruner Veltliner. I bought it...
Just a note of caution. If you hear about a product being on sale at one store, don't assume that if you order it from another you'll get that sale price! A...
- The sale price should be available to all of us. We put these stores in business, with our tax money. Then they act like churls and expect we can go...
Estufarian makes sense when he complains about CSPCs being used, instead of UPC bar codes...Dunn's post makes even more nonsense out of the CSPC, because the ...

Dean writes about an embedded rating within the CSPC code, but I don't really understand the computation, and where to look for the double digit? Looking at...
I think Dean's comments should have been sent April 1st. There is no hidden message or code in the CSPC - it is simply a brand identification number. We are...

Thanks for the premature eulogy, Jay. However, I'm rejoining the list with my new ISP. At least, I'm trying to; I'm down to my last day or two on my old ISP....
In addition to the Chateau des Charmes excellent Riesling I would highly recommend the 2001 Cilento Riesling Reserve + 605725. The 2000 was the Cuvee award...
Thanks for this, Michael, It appears as if the LCBO is caught holding the lead ball. They have long proclaimed how valuable their wine testing service is, to...

Anyone else have an interest in 723643 from April 19th, the boxed Rioja from Beronia. It's listed as 2000, but the bottle is 1999. At least, that's what's at...
