I was very happy with how non-snobby the wine reps were at our festival. Another cool thing was that we had lots of local wineries present, so I got turned on to some good local wines. You Missourians should be driving over to the Missouri wine country on the weekends and "touring."

Is the sign of a good red how dry it is? I generally feel thirsty after I drink a "good" red. |

Dry does not necessarily equal good, but it often correlates. I just like really full-bodied (high tannin) wines that linger on the pallet. This is probably because I'm a whiskey/scotch drinker and I really like to know when I'm drinking something, especially if I shelled out some serious bucks for it.

If anyone lives near a Trader Joe's (none in KC yet), they have a TJ label cabernet reserve for $9.99 that is easily comparable to most $25-30 cabs. Great wine, and great deal. |

I expect more from your DP shtick than such obvious replies.
