So not your typical WF, but they have a nice wine section. Good variety, particularly in France, Germany, Italy - especially for a grocery store. Ben - Probably not, but keep your eyes open just in case. Thanks for the comments on the Oddball series. I enjoy doing it, though sometimes I'm not sure what people will consider oddball enough. Like I've got a Cahors in the cellar, which I'm sure a lot a people haven't ever had, but I'm sure there are plenty who consider it a common French appellation. Or an old-vines Carignane from Chile. Carignane isn't that odd I guess, but OLD VINES Carignane in CHILE? That seems odd to me. Thoughts?

Sounds like a pretty interesting one though. I know I say this every week, but I really enjoy this series. I love trying oddball wines, so this is always fun to read.

Good scores from just about everyone. This is a perfect example of the power of the masses. The great equalizer this interweb is! We really need a Whole Foods here in Spokane!
