Much more important to me is the smoothness of the arc, without precipitate drops along the way. I've often wondered about the finish fetish, where people actually time it and put it in their notes...

While living in Germany I sought mostly M-S-R and Rheingau wines but remember being thrilled with a Mussbacher that I probably just picked up at a grocery store. I have my old note card on it at home--will have to check the producer's name. I don't see Mussbacher wines much and would like to revisit one..

David, are you coming this way this summer? Didn't I hear rumors of such?
and I used to punch my older sister when she called me "mo."

One of the few remaining women I'm most desirous to meet (the other being another true friend, JuliaB), I'm sure any chance to wine and dine at her joint would be a most fascinating and rewarding experience.
