[QUOTE="redbigot, post: 2337567, member: 58097"] Due diligence of a wine you don't know, but may fit with what you like involves checking reviews from professionals you trust, not just merchant or wholesaler blurbs, unlike Nicks. Winestar does not usually post their own TN, mostly producer/wholesaler/trade reviews/notes. If you (directly or indirectly) accused Bert of "false and misleading advertising" I can understand his response. Actually, I'd love to see that whole email exchange, having been involved in a few over the years, some threatening legal action (against me), there is always two sides to a story. I've been buying wine online since the mid/late 90's, I've made some mistakes (not many % wise) and until DM "change of mind" and VM came along I've lived with them and become more careful in what I buy. VM is about the only place I take a chance on a buy of something for which I don't have full information, with the backup of easy returns. [/QUOTE]
