I've been busy as heck at work (60-70 hours per week the past month or
so). My poor web site has been neglected the past month or so.

I've been able to pop the cork on a few bottles of Chardonnay the past
week or two, but thats about it. I'm going to open up a 2002 George
Duboeuf Syrah-Merlot tonight or tomorrow. My daughter thought the
bottle was "pretty" so she picked it out for me while cruising the isles
at Sam's Club.

I wanted to mention also that I found a new wine opener (fancy
corkscrew) at Sam's for $6.99. This is an awesome opener. I couldn't
find a picture on Sam's for you, but here is a link to the same opener
at Costplus World Market (for x3 the price):
http://www.worldmarket.com/costplus/...tid=69&id=3181

It's the smaller of the two openers pictured. It makes pulling a cork a
2-3 second ordeal with little effort. If anyone is interested I'll post
the manufacturer information.

Hope everyone is well, and is enjoying some good bottles.

Take care!

Hi group:

Hope I am not intruding on anyones space but I need some help in finding a
wine. My name is Charlie Hendricks and my e-mail is . Two
week ago I held a reunion for our graduating class of 1955 (50 years). One
of the grads brought with him a super wine (at least to my taste). Here is
what is on the label;; ESPORAO Alentejo - D.O.C. - Reserva 99 --
Denominacao de Origem Centrolada - Reguengos - Vinho Tinto / Red Wine /Vin
Rouge. Would appreciate any help on where I might find above . Have tried
the internet but can't seem to get where I need to be. Thought I would try
the "newsgroups" and there you were. Hope you all have a good day or have
already had one. Thanks in advance---

Try wine searcher:

I typed in Esporao and found several results, most of them $16-$18, but
nothing from 1999.
