[net.wines] Looking for wine in Chicago

   One thing I miss since moving from Buffalo, N.Y. (are those groans I
hear out there?) is my favorite wine shop. I could walk in and, on most
days, talk directly to one of the buyers who had visited the vineyards and
would give honest recommendations for my taste. I could describe my needs 
and 8 times out of 10 they would suggest something suitable - and generally
at a fair price.
   Now I live in the wonderful and affluent western suburbs of the great
metropolis of Chicago and I cannot find a wine outlet with a clerk who can
do more than separate wine from gin. It seems that all the stores are stocked
out of a Sears catalog by someone who prefers to drink highballs.
   Can anyone out there suggest a good source in the western 'burbs?

Looking for wines in Chicago:
	Try the Gluntz store on North Wells Street.  I have had very good
luck finding what I want, and their recommendations have proved faultless.
