Isn't Everyone an Oenophile? 2006-03-15 When I'm not reading about library happenings I'm usually reading about wine, so I want to pass on this bit of news. Eric Asimov, the chief wine critic of the New York Times, has a new blog devoted to wine and other drinks. Asimov is an excellent writer and I hope this new blog gives us a more personal look at his thoughts about wine and culture.
