Kyle Phillips’ Italian wine blog:

I’m a overall fan of Neil Drinks Wine. His reviews are part action flick, part porn. Very entertaining. And if its not too braggy or inappropriate; I think my own blog has some writing that’s very good, thank you very much. http://winediva.wordpress.com/
The Red Wine Haiku Review is unique in its writing. This deserves to be included among the best blogs.
I forgot to put myself in here too. I’m not shy, baby.
