750ml.net acknowledged today that a technical malfunction on their internet site caused at least one web page to be off-line for nearly two hours.  Sources close to the situation say that the wine review page for Gewurztraminer had been deleted from the server.  At the time, there was no ability to reload the page.  Readers would have received a "Page not available message" when trying to access the reviews during the blackout.  No foul play is suspected.

The page was back online by 9:30 PM local time.  750ml.net declined to give a cause for the problem or estimate the amount of damages that may have occurred.
