There's a nice section on Romani Conti (DRC). I tasted a Romani Conti many years ago. The memory lingers on my palate even today.

There is another section on the underrated, or misunderstood Rieslings. I had the pleasure of tasting a 20-year-old Chateau Montelena Riesling some years back. Think Rieslings don't age well? Think again. It was a casual atmosphere. An acquaintance was clearing his wine cellar of older whites. We tasted about 10 different wines, most of them Chardonnays. The Riesling stood head and shoulders above them all, and all but a couple were very good to excellent.
