A friend of mine keps telling me of fatbastard wine. We caan't seem to find it on the west coast. Do you have any knowledge of where to get it. I'm south of L.A. in Orange county. I've tried specialty stores here so far.

Fat Bastard wines are everywhere. I know BevMo carries them and they have at least 5 huge stores in your immediate area.

This won't help you find it, but here's a review posted today by the 30 second wine advisor:
THIERRY AND GUY 2001 "FAT BASTARD" VIN DE PAYS D'OC SHIRAZ
($10.99)
This very dark blackish-purple wine shows garnet highlights against
the light. Grapey and warm aromas add a whiff of fragrant black
pepper and spice. Juicy fruit flavors and lemon-squirt acidity on
the palate, snappy and fresh, come together to make a simple but
quaffable red wine that's good with hearty fare. U.S. importer:
Click Imports, Seattle. (Jan. 5, 2003)
FOOD MATCH:. Crossing international boundaries, this French table
wine went well with a country Italian pasta dish, bucatini
all'Amatriciana.
VALUE: Fair value at this price, but often discounted; a better buy
at a dollar or two less.
