"I live in Alexandria, VA but plan on being in Wilton for Thanksgiving. Will try to visit Cafe Lola just for the Belle Cousine! :)

I don't know why I started thinking of this today, but I had to write a post about it to and would LOVE some Snooth feedback! The whole post is here:...

"I'm up in the Milford area, but lived in Westport for over 11 years and grew up all over Fairfield County. Cafe Lola is hosting an Alsacean wine dinner next Tuesday if you're interested... $55/pp. Should be nice. I'm planning on attending, but working out the schedule.

And they have the Belle Cousine there... it is YUMMY!

:)

Ciao,
Natalie"

"Yeah, knew it was taken somewhere up north. My sister and her family live in Wilton, CT and from the looks of the landscape looks like it could have been taken at their place. Will try to get to Cafe Lola and Molto Pizzeria & Wine Bar when visiting next. Are you from Fairfield or close by?

And thanks for your review of 2005 Belle Cousine from Hyde Vineyard... sounds tasty and will try it soon.

Take Care,

Mark "

"Mark,

This picture was taken outside the tasting room at Benmarl Winery in Marlboro, NY. :)

As for my blog, I'll have to find a message board to add for you! Thanks for the friendly add!

Take Care,

"Hey~ Was trying to leave a message, something happened, and I lost you before I could add you as a 'friend'. Luckily I remembered your .com and hoped I'd have the right person... Went there and found no place to leave a message!

Anyway, was just going to ask where you were when this picture of you was taken... The background looks very familiar.

Sincerely,
Mark"

Natalie Kronick reviewed Hdv Belle Cousine Cabernet Blend 2005. (5/5)
On Oct 26

I had this over the weekend and it was EXCELLENT! I highly recommend if you like a nice big cabernet and lots of flavor. Very rich... almost like a petit syrah! Read my entire review here:...

WELL - this is quite possibly the most humerous post. I will say, from the perspective of being a waitress in a trendy Spanish restaurant for a handful of years, I can TOTALLY relate to what you...

I'm sorry to say that I won't make this one! :( *tear*, but sounds amazing and wonderful! Keep me posted on anything else in the near future!

What a FIND! Fantastic old-world Rioja style wine. 95% Tempranillo, 5% Graciano & Mazuelo. This had a wonderful nose of sweet leather, white pepper, some dried fruits, like fig and a little...

On Sep 16

This was a gift from my neighbor who hand-delivered the bottle from NZ himself! Kudos to him!! Anyhow, I don't generally indulge in Chardonnay, unless food is present, like seared scallops...

Natalie Kronick reviewed Miranda Vineyard Merlot 2007. (3/5)
On Sep 15

While recently visiting this Goshen, CT Vineyard, I came across their wonderful Merlot! This has been produced from grapes sourced from Sonoma, but the winemaker did a lovely job of instilling his...

This was impressive! For $12 out of France, I was floored. Screwcap, zingy sauvignon blanc. Actually, it had all the quintessential characteristics of a good sauvignon that I'm constantly...
