I don't know any specific sites... but looking at others source code is a great way to learn CSS. That's how I learned. Of course, you have to have a basic knowledge of CSS before you can actually understand it.

Do you know how much will and determination you must have to read the entire CSS specification?

Most of us just want to colour their hyperlinks yellow. If you want to learn CSS quickly, learn it here:
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/authoring/stylesheets/

If you want to learn CSS solidly, go to
http://webreference.com/html/tutorials/

This index explains every property and browser issues with CSS:
http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/css/index9.htm

If you want to know even more than there is on the official CSS specification (ie. browser issues, bugs, non-listed selectors, etc.), go to
http://www.css.nu/pointers/
but it'll take ages to read.

There is an index you know. :D
You don't have to read it from cover to cover like a novel.

In the end you will find that looking for your question in the spec in most cases is much faster then to try and find the same info in tutorials.

BTW, I myself learned CSS from scratch from the specs.
