A newsgroup for wine?
Is there interest in a wine rating news group, possibly a subgroup
of net.cooks (what about net.cooks.wine or net.drunks)?  In particular,
I would be interested in tasting experiences, ratings of value
(defined as merit divided by price), availability, and any other
spiritous information.  For example, I am currently concerned with
the problem of laying in a supply of reasonably priced red dinner wine
for regular drinking.  My candidates are
       Torres Coronas 1977
       Inglenook Vintage Burgundy (all years I have tried have been good)
       Marquis de Caceres (sp?) 76
I have not yet tasted the last of these.  Their cost in case lots is all
below $4 and the first two have quite reasonable merit.  However,
am I missing some good bet somewhere?  Would you like to help and
be helped?
