Norm's List of "Winners"

Each year I give my reader's a list of ten or twelve of the best wines which I have written about during the last twelve months, in order to help with your Holiday planning.  For 2018 I have decided to give you a real present!  I have wines that I consider winners, which you can count on year after year to be anywhere from a Good, to a Great choice.
