Noted & Saved - I can probably get to these in a couple of trips I
HAVE to make to DC this Spring.

I am surprised to hear you say that total beverage is a little more
expensive -- I would not have known that. Generally I just look-see-
buy in a certain price range -- mostly Italian wines - DH will buy a
French or two, usually at Trader Joe's always on the cheap side, and
tastes that way to me, too.

Looking forward to a trip to a new wine store.
Thanks again.
