Winegeeks Speak

Maybe you've seen them lurking in wine shop aisles, longingly eyeing bottles they can't afford. Maybe you know some. Or maybe you are one... In any case, winegeeks seem to be everywhere these days, and some of them have decided to speak out, sharing their story with the rest of us. Chris and Lisa's Compleat Winegeek is an entertaining look at one couple's descent into the world of winegeek-dom. The handy glossary of "geekspeak" and tasting note instructions should be useful to anyone inclined to follow their path. The site's best feature is the tasting note essay section, which manages to balance offbeat humor with clear, informative wine reviews, offering a rare opportunity to laugh and learn at the same time. Whether you're a confirmed winegeek or would never want to be one, this site is definitely worth checking out.
