  • 3daywinereview.com says:

    7/30/2023 8:47:00 PM - Wow when will you start putting a score on all these meaningless wine reviews.

  • Dulcie and Aylwin says:

    5/25/2023 9:40:00 AM - Replying to your message: I had some research subsequent to posting my note on your board and learned that you are indeed owner of Waterford. Good to know. We signed up for the white burgundy (my absolute favorite) tasting next Thursday. Glad you found my Chemistry note amusing, I do like to have fun with notes when opportunity arises.

  • Dulcie and Aylwin says:

    5/23/2023 12:54:00 PM - I was wondering how you might know about Waterford in Fitchburg, but I see that you live in Milwaukee. Are you familiar with Thief Wines in the Public Market?

  • BellevuePhil says:

    5/2/2023 7:48:00 PM - OMG he's in the top. Congrats....love the pic btw reminds me of the early days when I discovered French wine.

  • Motz says:

  • Doan Steel says:

    11/22/2022 9:50:00 AM - Are the wines offered by First Bottle a good value?

  • scooterb60 says:

    8/8/2022 7:45:00 AM - Hi Ben, I am a big fan of your wine notes and of course, I consider myself a good customer of yours. My wife and another couple are going to Oregon wine country. Would you suggest some of your favorite tasting spots out there? Thank you in advance!!

  • Halfeel says:

    11/25/2020 12:53:00 PM - Ben, any hints at where to track down some Beaujolais Nouveau since WW isn't carrying it? (Don't judge, it's a tradition.)

  • MK9786 says:

    9/2/2020 12:49:00 PM - Anyone with information on Louis Martini Monte Rosso Vineyard Black Designate Cabernet Sauvignon? How is this different from the usual Monte Rosso Cab from Louis Martini? Thanks.

  • Doc2 says:

    5/3/2020 1:06:00 PM - Hi Ben, I like the Jadot village gevrey chambertin. However, I don't see many holdings. I see you post tasting notes on most of them. Why are they not big holdings on CT?

  • Ben Christiansen says:

    4/25/2020 5:20:00 AM - I'd say now and for the next five years.

    1/21/2015 5:03:00 PM - AHHHHHH!!!! I can't make it this Friday for the Cullen Bonanza. Heading to Hawaii tomorrow morning. I recently had an 02 Diana Madeline and it was absolutely devine. One of the best I've ever had. Seriously, it was an experience. Dig in to some Margaret River for me and I'll have to make it back to MKE soon. Hope all's well.
