And distributed where? Seriously, Carl, I'm not picking on you, but for Wine Focus to thrive, we really need to pick a subject wine that's both interesting (okay, Diamond has that potential), and widely available so the whole crew can compare tastings and discussion. I honestly think that DIamond has a problem in that regard.
Okay, let's look at it this way: Wine-Searcher.com finds exactly 11 matches for a searchon the Diamond variety, and they're all Eastern wines lacking wide distribution.
