1. Catavino
Vinography
West Coast Wine Country Adventures has exposed me to wines in this region that I had never heard of before. The Information is informative and fun to read.
http://www.wine-girl.net (My Wine Education)
Dr. Vino
http://www.vinessetoday.com/ has original writing on it. Bob Johnson has a way of making a wide range of wine topics accessible to the novice.
I would like to nominate http://www.foodandwineblog.com for best wine blog. Not only does it have excellent wine reviews and information but the recipes are spectacular. I also adore the humorous slant on many of the articles!
I would like to nominate
http://www.cluelessaboutwine.co.uk/blog.html
as its very original, well written and entertaining.
I nominate http://philosovino.wordpress.com. real stories from a life in the wine industry.
Without question, http://www.goodgrape.com
I would like to suggest – http://www.ultimatepinot.com –
It’s aimed at pretty savvy wine aficionados, from avid consumers to sommeliers, who love Pinot. They compiled an archive of a couple dozen posts about the 2006 and 2007 vintages before this very current launch.
Matt Giraud, wine writer extraordinaire, has posted some of the best and funniest wine writing in the blog above – he is the inspirational leader of a creative, conspiratorial group of garage winemakers called Les Garagistes in Porltand Oregon. The group has been making wine together for over 15 years and is now producing world class cult bordeaux blends using Washington/Columbia Valley grapes.

I don’t understand how he keeps that pace up. But the puns are great!
The Pour, obviously
http://thepour.blogs.nytimes.com/
Jamie Goode, best scientific mind writing about wine, and his writing gets better every year
http://www.wineanorak.com/blog/
oenologic…if there was a wine & travel category, this would be a clear co-winner with Wine Terroirs, but the writing is very good no matter the subject
http://oenologic.blogspot.com/
Besides some mentioned above, these three deserve serious consideration:
The Picky Eater
Vinofictions
Obsession with Food
Best Wine Blog Writing:

He writes some exceptional tasting notes:
750ml http://www.750ml.blogspot.com/
http://www.thewinespies.com has some of the most original and clever wine writing ever.
http://thewinespies.com
Makes the world of wine accessible in a very unique and fun way.
http://thewinespies.com
the wine spies at http://www.winespies.com
They have great recommendations, they are funny, entertianing and really different.
You need to take a look at The Wine Spies at http://thewinespies.com. They do a great job of keeping with the fun theme of the website in their reviews and writing.
http://thewinespies.com – I would like to think that it is not the number of readers who vote for a site; but rather the content and clearity of the information. Agent Red and Agent White (and a few others) really are at the top of imparting wine information clearly, cogently and convincingly.
Without question, The Wine Spies,
