I wonder whether you would be prepared to do two things for me: (a) Look at the list of wineries for your region which is attached ( ), and strike out any deaths and add any new arrivals; and (b) Complete the vintage chart (which is present ly blank) by inserting a figure on a 1 to 10 scale (recognising that few, if any, vintages rate lower than 5) for red and white wines respectively. This is intended as a regional guide, not for your winery, so would ask that your rating be as broad-based as possible. I personally hate vintage charts, but unfortunately the great unwashed do not agree. I apologise for this (further) intrusion on your time, and do hope you can help - particularly with a quick responC.se.

This involves an exact determination now of the wines to be included, although I will not need samples until Friday April 25 (Anzac Day).

The book version will be published in August, the CD ROM in October, the latter with the opportunity for additional updates up to July 30. I attach a list of the wines which I have identified as possible inclusions for the book; I assume they will definitely be available for the CD ROM. Could you please tick the appropriate column if samples (which need not be commercially labelled) will be available by either cut-off date. If they will not be available, simply sC trike out the wine in question. Could you please return the form by fax by the end of this week.
