Wine Spectator Top 100

As Louis Calli noted on Facebook, today is the first day of announcements for Wine Spectator's annual Top 100 list. The magazine will be rolling out the top 10 two-by-two on their website this week with the full list available online next Monday, Nov. 17. Retailers are already gearing up as this list usually recognizes old standbys and a few terrific values. Full explanation of how they select these wines is online. First up are numbers 10 and 9 -- the Seghesio Sonoma 2007 Zinfandel ($24) and the Mollydooker 2007 Carnival of Love Shiraz ($90).
