Yeah, you could read this title a few different ways.

Not to mention MY spelling.

Doh! It was early (at least for a Sunday.) No disrespect intended. I'm really glad to see him participating here.

PH

He's still at it. Go James!

to be honest, they all need to take part.this forum is about all that WORK FOR WINE SPECTATOR.the people that posted here have made this site , know it is up to them to make it work and even better. An james suckling has taken the first and best step!!!!!!

I give high praise to James for coming in and giving everyone some nice notes.

If he grows tired of posting, WS could assign a different taster a month to post on the Forums.

He's always been willing to post here from time to time (and responds to follow ups) and now with the notes - it's great.

BUT, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for the others. They have never showed any interest in this site. Would be nice though.

I'll bet a lot more people are checking the tasting notes forum now.

I really enjoy reading a professional's critique and tasting notes---(one who does it for a living, and not just a hobby, like me)

I read (or have read) Broadbent, Coates, Laube, Parker, Suckling, Robinson, and others, and find it all very interesting, especially when you get different perspectives from the professionals! Remember the recent and different reviews of Pavie by Parker vs. Robinson....or Laube's rating's? It's all good reading, and I have learned much over the years.
So JS, keep up the good work.

I'm hoping he revisits some of his Piedmont and Tuscany notes also. I would love some analysis on 97 BdM in particular.

But, I can't blame him for ripping through the 82 first growths first

JS - thank you for posting your tns! I hope you're able to keep this up on a semi-frequent basis.

You bring some new life/excitement to the board which is great.
