August TAA King is.... | Wine Spectator Forums

KYBO!
The man's resume speaks for itself, but my main thoughts for selecting Bob are as follows:

The man travels extensively, and has become the master of the online-offline;

He likes a variety of different wines and is the poster child for Malbec;

He posts numerous tasting notes;

He was a 6/15 attendee, and I had the pleasure of meeting him and his lovely wife;

Dr. T's description of him from an online-offline remains a classic in my mind.

Good Luck and Happy Hunting!

Ahem, thanks Dave.

I'd also like to thank the academy, my parents, my 2nd grade art teacher, and my 5th grade bus-stop attendant Mrs. Gettelfinger. I graciously accept this prestigious honor and vow....Oops, wrong speech!

Actually, I already have a bottle of wine in mind (and in the cellar)...freshly released, something rich, red, available, untried and untested in this cyber-realm and printed media alike.....and it came w/high recommendations from my wine-gal in Atlanta. I'll wait 'till the July TAA is complete, then spring it on ye faithful masses!!!

Don't worry, it's not a Malbec.....although, hmmmm.
