I subscribe to the winespectator.com but lost interest years ago in the
magazine. I have virtually lost interest in the online as well.

While I am sure there is something redeeming in there I have a hard time
with a reference that makes money on advertising and rates wines. I am sure
there is no conflict of interest but I am somewhat suspect anyway.

Plus I have heard to many stories of James Laube in Napa that I personally
find disturbing with regards to wine snobbery at restaurants. I must admit
I have never met the man.
