What Our Members Say
"Easier to search and compare vintages of same wine"
M. Kenyon
"Love it... now that I've figured out how to log in ! Very handy for a quick check on a new wine that I might want to buy/try .. or a wine that's been sitting in my cupboard. The wine regions "Vintage Chart" is also very helpful when buying new wines .. a quick glance can give some idea of the potential quality."
