Keith- there are a lot of good German rieslings with asterisks on the bottle :)

That was good. Did Parker realize there was a confusing asterisk system already in place when he decided to use the asterisk? Did he consult with the VDP?

To help him along, next year they're coming out with gold caps in Bordeaux.

But...but...Pichon-Lalande already has a gold cap. How is the consumer supposed to account for that?

I'm really looking forward to the release of the Lascombes Grosses Gewachs. Or is that just Lascombes Gross?

They deal with it with Donhoff Auslesen. I'm sure they'll be fine. There's always Lange . . .
