What de Négoce wine are you drinking tonight?

If anyone remembers the CGCW, Connoisseurs’ Guide to California Wine?
FYI, my Yums = their Puffs. (But, I’m an easier grader)
Ha, an old timer here, go figure……
My Winemaking starting commercially in 1980.

Sorry to hear this - as a retailer in the 1980s (late 70s), I hung on every word (and puff). If a wine got “one puff” it was worth the effort to find - “two puffs” and you just HAD to have it - and “three puffs” was like getting a 100 point score back then. I got turned on to so many wineries through CGCW.
