Old Wine Bloggers Never Die, They Just Write for the Gazette
For those who have been around the wine blog-o-sphere for a few years, the Caveman's blog was a gem. Bill Z. offered world class wine knowledge with a down-to-earth attitude. Like many blogs (this one included) the Caveman posted less regularly, and then poof! it became frozen in time (kind of like Han Solo in Empire).
Well, my pal Bill, the Caveman, is back and writing for the Montreal Gazette. It's good to see his voice is being appreciated by those lucky folks in Quebec.
"It was my first evening back working the floor as a sommelier. I was invigorated after an exceptional week touring and tasting wine in France's Languedoc-Roussillon.
My second table that night was a couple from France, so I started going on and on about the place, even recommending to them one of my favourite wines from the region. They looked at me and said, "Yes, it's beautiful there, but we would never drink their wines."
Read the rest of the column here.
Good on ya Bill!
Hurrah! I wondered what had happened to 'the Caveman'. Thanks for the update.

Yes, Golly, we have been enjoying his column. He's doing a great job for Montrealers in the English language. Will you make it to this year's Salon des Vins (http://www.salondesvins.com) in Montreal, Beau? Rumour has it you attended the last event...

hurrah! Thanks so much for updating me as to the Caveman's whereabouts! He was my first real "bloggy" friend. He gave me wine tips, I gave him recipes. So glad to know he's writing again! Thanks Beau! (oh, and happy new year!)

Wines with high tannin age well as long as the cellar is cool enough. So the red wine has a pretty good shot at being not just OK, but actually better than when they were new. They will have a little sediment in the bottom. That is normal. Just use a decanter
