It's a year today since the death of Wee Rab, a dear friend for most of my life in the wine business. I took this photograph the last time we lunched together. He loved the big tomato pizza at Roaring Fordies. He was dying of liver cancer. His last press release is here. My obituary is here. Wilma is selling all the batches of wine he left, which includes many rare lovelies; I'll put the details up in the next few days. Here we are at in their Barr Eden winery, doing the giant metwurst limbo at Wilma's birthday. Willie got under real smooth. Riesling intact ... top photo©Philip
