  I moved this past weekend. Sometimes, it takes a move to bring to focus the blur that exists in the everyday surroundings we call home. The professional can pack up and ship out in a hurry. The sentimentalist will linger over each and every item as if it were the fingerprints on the hospital index card of their first born. I won't bore you w... Read More

  Hands up if you've had a wine from Monterey.Of the 850 wines that I've rated on Snooth, I've had around 15 from there.

  Trade fairs, no matter the trade, are a Darwinian exercise in survival of the fittest; specifically survival of the flashiest. I am often reminded of Bourbon Street in New Orleans with its lineup of colorful hawkers trying to separate the unwary tourist from their vacation budget. Trade fairs for the wine industry are really no different but the... Read More

  Cape Spring Cellars Chardonnay 2005

  While its rumored that the gods (Zeus in particular) devoured chocolate and wine every hour, on the hour, I've never been a huge fan of the combo. In fact, it wasn't until recently that I relatively enjoyed the two in the same bite. The countless other times I tried them as one, the acid was off, the chocolate was too sweet for thewine, or the w... Read More
