I would have to cast my vote for La Gramiere: http://www.lagramiere.typepad.com/blog/ – it is most informative, and it reflects the knowledge and enthusiasm of Amy and Matt. I’ll drink to them!

Mia Klein’s blog at http://www.selenewines.com
I love Sideways Wine Club! It is a great resource and always entertaining.
I love Sideways Wine Club. It is a great resource, very informative and always “tasty”.
Sideways Rocks with their spot on info and humor. Entertaining and informative…a great comob!
I would have nominated Mia’s blog too but I don’t believe she posts enough to meet the nominating criteria. Ditto for the Tablas Creek blog and the Perrin & Fils blog.
http://www.SidewaysWineClub.com.typebad.com/blog
lagramiere.typepad.com, of course!
La Gramiere – It’s just fun to watch/read about life in a garage winery.

Thanks for the attempted nominations for Mia Klein’s blog at Selene Wines! There isn’t any way she has time to post once a week to meet the 52 posts in 2006 requirement. We do receive great feedback however, so she’ll keep talking, and I’ll keep typing!

Gotta go with a second for Dover Canyon…..

i nominate red wine haiku – very unique and entertaining!
La Gramiere. Amy helped me out with some information about Burgundy. She was incredibly helpful, and I think that their site is great! Very entertaining and informative. Good Luck!

Gary Vanerchuk’s Wine Library TV. BEST!!!!
Winecentric is a great review site
Another vote for El Bloggo Torcido and The Wine Chicks.
Oops, the Wine Chicks don’t belong in this category…
Gary Vaynerchuk of Wine Library TV has the best overall Wine Blog. You have to check out the site.
Vaynerchuck all the way!
Without a doubt the best wine blog, in my estimation – short, to the point, no droning about clones, terroir or maceration but brilliantly creative: Red Wine Haiku!
I would like to nominate Wine Library TV with your host Gary Vay-ner-chuk…
+CHEF
-Whenever someone asks what your making for dinner, tell them “Reservations”…
I also nominate lagramiere.com! Amy amd her husband Matt are living out a fantasy that many Americans who love wine have. I love the fact that she doesn’t hide the fact that the actuality of that fantasy requires a lot of hard work and determination. Amy’s blog gives an intimate, knowledgeable (dare I say unprecedented?), inside view to anyone curious about what it’s like to start and run a vineyard in the South of France.
I’d also like to nominate lagramiere.com. Well written, informative and always entertaining!
I enjoy Catavino…a great site run by obviously well educated wine enthusiasts! It deserves a long life.
Have to nominate La Gramiere. Down to earth, fun to read and very informative.
Sideways Wine Club – very informative as well as entertaining.
I think that anyone being spammy and nominating sites multiple times in the wrong categories should perhaps be disqualified. Wine Library TV and Sideways Wine .
Or maybe I just have a low tolerance for spam.

Here’s another nod to
El Bloggo Torcido,
Pinotblogger, and

I wish to nominate lagramiere. The blog is not only entertaining and educational the writing is appealing. Amy has graciously answered my naive questions.

I believe Vinespot gives the best information on a varity of wines
Another nomination for Dover Canyon.
The writing is incredibly good and often very funny. I have forwarded some of their posts to my friends.
