For California wine history buffs

On the “Bring out your dead” thread I posted the following:

I took a flyer on this wine because of comments Rick Forman made in an interview in the UC Berkeley Wine Industry Oral History project. (The Oral History Project is an incredible gem of a resource! Find it here: > http://bancroft.berkeley.edu/ROHO/projects/food_wine/wine.html> " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

This is a really great site. Interviews from 1970 or so up till today from people like Leon Adams, Maynard Amerine, Ernest Gallo, Mike Grgich, Joe Heitz, Paul Draper, etc., etc. These are transcripts of conversations, not audio.

(BTW, the quote was about a 1971 Sterling Pinot Noir.)

Very cool Chris. Thanks for sharing this. [cheers.gif]

Ric is a very cool guy. extremely knowledgeable about this subject.

An amazing resource!

Need to take an in depth look at this…thanks.
