In fact -- clue 4 -- it's not a NJ wine.<br /><br />If it were Keller Spatburgunder I'd be pissed too, as it would be a cork from a wine I've never tasted. Hell, I've visited Keller's estate and still haven't tasted any of his Spatburgunders.... Yes, Felix is expensive but it doesn't hold a candle to Riesling G-Max. You did notice the "G" on the Diam now, didn't you?<br /><br />PS: Clue 5 -- no, it's not German either.David McDuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274955351036700406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017457764988110566.post-77931421567579418072010-01-28T21:41:49.644-05:002010-01-28T21:41:49.644-05:00On 2nd thought I see the price on the Felix and th...On 2nd thought I see the price on the Felix and think twice about my impulse.TWGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02592548268341500443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017457764988110566.post-70341873652031921572010-01-28T21:34:11.093-05:002010-01-28T21:34:11.093-05:00Keller Spatburgunder?

Not quite right, though.... So, here's the first clue: it's not Italian. And here's the second: it's not French.David McDuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274955351036700406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017457764988110566.post-39324471693157929842010-01-28T09:09:33.564-05:002010-01-28T09:09:33.564-05:00Producer = Corte Gardoni
