While we agreed on two of the favorite producers this day, Maison Bertrand Ambroise, and Ponzi Vineyards, we each preferred their other offering. I also found myself liking the Flowers 2009 Sonoma Coast equally well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jeff&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ps. Looks like absolutely perfect weather for the Grand Tasting today (as we speak).
