I would like to suggest - www.ultimatepinot.com -
It’s aimed at pretty savvy wine aficionados, from avid consumers to sommeliers, who love Pinot. They compiled an archive of a couple dozen posts about the 2006 and 2007 vintages before this very current launch.

Matt Giraud, wine writer extraordinaire, has posted some of the best and funniest wine writing in the blog above - he is the inspirational leader of a creative, conspiratorial group of garage winemakers called Les Garagistes in Porltand Oregon. The group has been making wine together for over 15 years and is now producing world class cult bordeaux blends using Washington/Columbia Valley grapes.

Jamie Goode, best scientific mind writing about wine, and his writing gets better every year

oenologic...if there was a wine & travel category, this would be a clear co-winner with Wine Terroirs, but the writing is very good no matter the subject

You need to take a look at The Wine Spies at http://thewinespies.com. They do a great job of keeping with the fun theme of the website in their reviews and writing.
Posted by: PJ | February 26, 2008 at 01:59 PM
http://thewinespies.com - I would like to think that it is not the number of readers who vote for a site; but rather the content and clearity of the information. Agent Red and Agent White (and a few others) really are at the top of imparting wine information clearly, cogently and convincingly.
