Wine Camp - I've bought more wine based on Craig's recommendations than anyone (the possible exception being Alder).
Wine Offensive - Turned me on to Rose de Diel, the best German Rose I've ever tasted. "Champagne without the bubbles."

I would nominate Wine Library TV [WLTV} Great reviews and very entertaining
Posted by: sTEWART L | January 10, 2007 at 07:11 AM
Definitely "The Red Wine Haiku Review" by Lane Steinberg.
I consider him to be the "Steven Hawking of Merlot".
If I had to pick one person to be in an "undisclosed location" with me, it would be Lane.
Posted by: Dick Cheney | January 10, 2007 at 07:38 AM
These Haiku's are not only witty, but are a fabulous approach as an expression of combining visualization and taste.
Posted by: The Red Wine Haiku Review | January 10, 2007 at 07:39 AM
Once again I need to nominate WLTV. Host Gary Vaynerchuck does a great job of describing wines in "everyday language". This makes wine tasting and judging accessible to everyone. And, with the help of a loyal volunteer, Chris Stanisci, the reviews are even downloadable to take with you into your local store!!
Posted by: Jaye | January 10, 2007 at 08:58 AM
Just for the record, I didn't post that bit of self-aggrandizement above. Someone must have punched in my URL by mistake. But as long as I'm here, I'm voting for the 30 Second Wine Advisor because Robin lays it down fair & squarely square.

I've learned more from Gary Vaynerchuk at tv.winelibrary.com than I will ever know. He has the best nose, tastebuds, and command of the New Jersey English language possible. I nominate Wine Library TV for best reviewer blog.

Gary V at Wine Library TV. He is changing the wine world, and he deserves to be honored for that.

Gary Vaynerchuk - Wine Library TV / WLTV
I've seen them all (other nominees so far) and no one comes close to the value-added insights, information, consistency in a delivering a high-value new program 5 DAYS A WEEK...and with a bit of humor that makes it clearly elevates it above the rest.

It's gotta be Wine Library TV. Gary Vaynerchuk is one of the most affiable, cogent and zany reviewers of wine in the known universe...

Little question and little contest: Gary Vaynerchuck of WLTV. His reviews are honest (even if it is painful), passionate, detailed, and creative.

I vote for Neil Drinks Wine. While I think Gary from Wine Library is fun, I can gather anything he says from reading the reviewers he criticizes (ie Parker, Laube). Neal makes it a fun story and he's a little creative when it comes to talking about wine. I say Neil Drinks Wine gets my vote for best "Wine Review Blog."
