";Oh, and should Mrs. Robinson ever need an army (or at least a gang) to help her fight her battles, I will be first in line to volunteer. Yep, I’ve had enough of fruit jam and barbarism.";

Again, I think both sides of this debate may be inflating JR into something larger than she can become. Just recently, Manuel, I recall you cited Calvario as one example of one of those big, overpriced, high cholesterol wines that vexes you immensely. Calvario, as it turns out, has drawn relatively extravagant praise from JR, who says it is ";an impressive wine by any standards. It comes from a single vineyard planted in 1945 on a gravelly hillside just outside Miguel Angel de Gregorio’s base in the village of Briones in Rioja Alta and this first vintage, already stunning when I first tasted it a couple of years ago, is very much the pride and joy of this iconoclastic winemaker. Extremely concentrated, long and modern with no shortage of ripe tannins underneath the welter of fruit, this wine is not exaggerated. It shows a delicate touch.";

Needless to say, I am positively gleeful at the prospect of seeing you, our crusty curmudgeon, take up arms in support of the proposition that Calvario is ";delicate."; THAT surely will be worth the price of admission to verema.com.
