Interesting. While I can see that the degree of polish for Blue Ginger isn't at the same level as some (far short of Campania, for instance), it's never bothered me all that much. Matter of what one notices, I suppose.

Thanks for the recommendations! Not the first time I've had some of those recommended -- in particular, Aujourd'hui is making its way up the list of places I clearly need to try one of these days. But I'll have to keep the ME recommendations in mind the next time we find ourselves up that way...
