But, there is a way to find wines and special order them, here is a link to the updated catalog: http://www.lcb.state.pa.us/Retail/Products/lcb_Default.asp wines marked regular are generally available, those marked specialty are available at superstores & specialty stores, those marked SLO you need to send an email to the address for "Special Liquor Order", it's listed on the page. What I have found is that some of the vendors will only do business in half or whole cases, and you need to contact the SLO people (who have been very helpful!)(really!) and they'll llet you know. Or call them, there's an 800 number. I think they are available until 9:00 PM Mon-Sat. Having said all that, does anyone have the scoop on West Virgina stores, I was thinking in particular, Morgantown should have a "fancy-schmancy" wine store. One that sells wine that isn't Mad Dog, heh. Anyone know? Cheers! ~De
