Robert Parker (or at least his Wine Advocate) loves this wine. They gave this vintage a 90; and the one before that, they gave a 92. So it's got to be great, right? Not terrible, but we didn't find it to be great, exactly. Here's what we found ... The ... - Emerson Vineyards, Chardonnay, 2006

ma ho mai bevuto questo vino? noo? peccato. - Re: Mildiani, (Tsinindali, Georgia), Saperavi, 2005
