A Year in Wine A Winner From FranceMarch 12thOh, those French, they do know a thing or two about making wine, don't they? For the past two months I've been tasting and drinking wines most readily available near our casa in Mexico, and that's meant Chilean, Argentine, Mexican and Spanish wines. Comparably few Californian, Italian and French wines are marketed in Los Cabos.
Artisan Family of Wines What a dumb questionMarch 12thThis article recently showed up on decanter.com: Fine Wine at 14% Alcohol is Impossible - or is it?
Dr. Vino's wine blog Breast milk cheese: impossible food-wine pairing?March 12thAll the chatter in the NY dining scene is about cheese made from breast milk. At Klee Brasserie, Chef Daniel Angerer blogged about making cheese made from his own lactating wife, blogged about it, and the requests to try it came pouring in.
JancisRobinson.com - fine writing on fine wines Fine wine v billionairesMarch 12thI am indebted to Liv-ex for the graphic below that shows quite convincingly how closely their index of fine wine prices follows the total number of billionaires in the world. (Such a shame that someone told billionaires about the pleasures of the grape.)
Juicy Tales by Jo Diaz Purfume That Smells Like Wine?March 12thOkay… If I'm around wine, I'm aroma neutral… for all the obvious reasons. Perfume is to attract the opposite sex, truth be told, and so who are we going to be attracting with this one? Most guys aren't into Chardonnay, or am I wrong?
PG BLOG rulo rulesMarch 12thThe 'R' was AWOL when I visited Kurt and Vicki Schlicker at their Rulo winery last spring. It had blown off in a windstorm, but upon my return to the winery this week, I found the Rulo sign fully restored (though not as photogenic) and the wines as fresh and vivid and stylish as ever.
bevlog Pineapple WineMarch 12thHere is wine made from pineapples, rather than grape wine with pineapple flavor. The above wine is produced and bottled by Florida Orange Groves of St. Petersburg, Florida. A second example is made in Thailand and imported by Radee Wine of Sacramento, California.
Southern Oregon Wine Blog The Book of my Dreams?March 12thI have been in agony lately trying to find a book on the topic of wine that captures my attention. There are just so many dull ones on the shelf. But, I have the inclination that Michale Gelb's new book, Wine Drinking for Inspired Thinking: Unocrk Your Creative Juices will not be the case.
