  Thanks to everyone for your ideas, recommedations, and tips.  We had a great two plus day trip into wine country!  We can not wait to return.  We did not hit any of the Huge, well known producers, as we wanted to stay away from traffic, as it was a weekend during High Season.  Here's a synopsis of our travels:Day 1:Chateau Montelena:  We had to ...

  This past May I made sure to visit Luigi Pira, particularly in light of the brilliant showing of his 1998 Barolo Marenca in a recent vertical tasting.

That began to change when I went on a cruise last summer.  For some reason I became conscious of differences in wine beyond just red and white. S... Read More

  Marquis de Saint Aunes 2007

  Snoothrank:

  Figs/ Fig Newtons, prunes, caramel, and butterscotch, vanilla- sweet. Sweet comes through on the taste as well. Nice body- not syrupy at all like some dessert wines. Raspberry cheesecake taste and aromas come through on tasting again. We just paired with a Spanish goat cheese called Tupi served on Pan de Pais, made close to Wine Pleasures HQ- a ... Read More
