My great aunt died and I inherited everything she had, including several bottles of wine. I do not know anything about wine at all. If there is anyone who would be willing to answer some questions about wines for me on a personal level,, please email me at kkristinlm@peoplepc.com. thank you

Hi KK and welcome to the board. If you post the wines you have withn the vintage, vineyard, and varietal I'm sure you can get some information. You're asking for info that cost big bucks on a personal basis. If you have important bottlings that are worth some money, we can help and THEN you can pay for more detailed information. WW

I personally find it rude to say "Hi. This is my first post. It will undoubtedly be my last. I know this board exists as a community for people to share their knowledge and experience but.... here's what I want. Answer my specific questions about what kind of wines I have and perhaps how much cash I'm sitting on here. I reallize that others on this board may stand to benefit from a public discussion but that is no concern of mine. Just answer my questions to my private mailbox and I'm out of here. Thatnks for your time."
But then again, rudeness is second nature for many.

In other words, kkristinlm, we would prefer it if you would post a list of the bottles you have inherited. We would like to see the valuations that other wineboard members would place on them.
That way, we all learn from your question.
You may not have meant to be rude but, since this is an open forum, asking for someone to contact you privately makes it appear that you do not want to share the information.
We invite you to come back and share as much as you can, so we can all learn about your wines.
