I am not Mike (duh!) but here's my response. I think that the Wine
Advocate, especially with the recent inclusion of David Schildknecht's
reviews of non-Parker-type wines, is good for its coverage and (once you
learn to parse his language and understand his biases) the consistency
of its reviewing; Claude Kolm's Fine Wine Review is good for geek-type
wines (Riesling, N. Rhone, Burgundy) if you share Claude's tastes;
Decanter is good for an English perspective.

Just my $0.02,
Mark Lipton
