  NG, if you want to hand me that bottle in about two weeks, I'll be in your neighborhood for my daughter's gymnastics competition.  I'll pay what you and I both paid, even though I recall a horror story about the delivery truck driving around during the hot summer days.  I liked that bottle--drank two of them and wished I had more.  It's the most...

  I don't eat pork but not because I keep kosher.  Heck, I'm not even Jewish, just my wife and kids. I just don't like it much, and I think Samuel Jackson was right that a pig is a filthy animal.  I'll save my other reasons for a meat up. Shellfish?  Are you kidding?  You know how much we spent on oysters at our wedding?  How many mussels my young...

I'm not sure I have many questions other than how they go about choosing the winemakers/land for all the various projects...would just listen to what I have to say and see if they were leaving anything out.Enjoy the wines, they should be very nice. I have the '09 and '10 Feather ( by Randy Dunn) in my c... Read More

  OT, if you like the fruit, 3Wines (Matt Cline) bottles Evangelho at a great price.  Check out WineAccess.com and get on the list--they have the best price on it unless you live near Wine Thieves in Berkeley and Lafayette. I had a Waxwing Syrah (2010) last night that friends brought over when we did our Nebbiolo dinner recently.  It was the ripe,...

  My youngest daughter  bought me two gifts in honor of my renewed interest in wines. A very nice wine tool kit and a motto painted on wood to mount on the wall of my wine/liquor bar. Very nice thoughtful gifts and I will have nice memories every time I open a bottle of wine or look at the wall. Emark will enjoy the irony of the slogan she choose ... Read More
