I was curious to know if anyone else here uses Cellar Tracker? I have been using the site for 2 1/2 years and find it very informative and useful.

A pretty good site. While you may not agree with any one wine drinker, the cumulative review is usually pretty accurate.
As I read in a Wine Spectator blog recently, the biggest advantage of Cellar Tracker is that they follow wines of various vintages at different time points. Reviewers like Parker and Wine Spectator are good about reviewing new release wines but rarely do they do retrospective tastings. That leaves the question, how do these wines age, and how are they drinking in 3, 5, 7, 10 years? For me, that is what makes Cellar Tracker worthwhile as it gives me an idea of "real time" drinking windows for my own bottles and advises me on which bottles will age the best when I am buying new wine.
