Letters are often left off words. I know, I should be proofreading better. In any event, I hope this does not result one day in a very embarrassing and unintended consequence! :)Ken and Laurie-Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14177174470747940864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7147393486014631294.post-26097562627205292752011-07-31T12:05:29.525-07:002011-07-31T12:05:29.525-07:00You're right.

And we haven't, yet, found anything as to replace it. Anyway, it appears we agree on Frascati.Dianne Bennett and William Graebnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00020113718051468497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7147393486014631294.post-84109011191382824162011-07-31T09:46:43.167-07:002011-07-31T09:46:43.167-07:00I am unsure as to why you would rely so heavily up...I am unsure as to why you would rely so heavily upon a treatise that is appears fairly dated in the wine world. You mention that there is some good Frascati out there, and I want to echo that, and comment that one should not be too fast to judge a wine by the grapes used in the production alone. The produce can make a huge difference. I had a wonderful Frascati the other night. I did a little bit of research on the wine and found that Wine Spectator gave it a 91. Not bad.Ken and Laurie-Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14177174470747940864noreply@blogger.com
