Underground Wine Letter Retrospective Issues
Every couple months we’ll be making a new retrospective issue available for download on our website — every time a new issue is released, we’ll feature it on the home page, plus archive all of the issues here for easy access. In addition to making the old issues available, we’ll also be writing a couple articles commenting on our thoughts from 30 years ago. The first, called the “Underground Retrospective“, acts as an introduction to each issue, and the second, called the “Retrospective Review“, provides commentary on the conclusions we made in the original issue.
