Am going to do a thoroughly informal experiment and have my assistants visit one supermarket and the most popular branches of the two best wine shops in Israel to do a random sampling.

Ultimately, we reserve the right to censor posts that violate policies or that we decide are inappropriate for any reason whatsoever in our sole discretion. Everyone who uses this board does so at the discretion of the owner, host and/or Admin, and all decisions are final. This is a privately owned venture--not a public entity.

Dan, Hi....
A word of friendly caution. Even on the internet one's words can be taken as libel.
And a word of friendly advice. If you think so badly of Mark Squires, why not simply avoid him and his forum?

Dale Williams wrote:I do however regard the WSJ article as very pertinent to the wine world. Parker's response is good, but a bit victim-y - he complains about the article without mentioning that he didn't respond to interview requests (and Squires and Miller refused to comment).
