[uf-discuss] Proposal: wine

[Brian Suda]

There was a discussion on this exact topic a few days ago:
http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2006-November/007125.html

Have a read through that, there are a few suggestions. I would first
attempt to mark-up as much as possible with existing microformats.
hListing was mentioned, you should also consider hReview and hCards.
