Maybe it has something to do with expectations of red and white wines on the part of the public and, consequently, how much "hammering" it takes to get a peg of one size and shape to fit into a hole of a different dimensions... One to keep looking into.... You may be right, Steve.

I am intrigued by your statement: "Maybe it’s easier to make a good, inexpensive white wine than an equivalent red wine". A number of winemakers have told me they believe that it is harder to make a good white wine than a good red wine. Interesting thoughts since reds are more often overwrought. L'Chaim! Some nice picks on your list, Steve.
