Who would know?
Who would know if the item is good or not? I ordered it three months ago in time for a party and STILL have not received it. Now I have to go out and find it on my own. Amazon - you really disappoint - AGAIN.

Wine Spectator
Running Press, 2004
Invaluable reference book for all wine drinkers/collectors
