  An interesting article --http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/01/dining/kevin-pogue-seeks-washington-states-top-terroir.htmlI've yet to try any wines from Walla Walla -- simply not available here -- but keep reading about them. It's on my to-do list for if I ever visit the US. But it's particularly interesting to see they're taking terroir more seriou... Read More

  I had mentioned earlier about Clinto (also called Clinton or Worthington to my knowledgde).It is a shame that in this day and age it is still a banned vine in most of Europe and those few that know and appreciate it have to do so by hiding and in constant fear the day of destruction of their precious vines will knock at the door when least expec...

  Yeah, I know, drink the beer!  Why would a wine fan want to travel to a place better known for beer anyway?  Well, my ancestry is Bohemian, so I wanted to see a bit of my roots in the Czech Republic, so a hundred thousand frequent flyer miles later and I am in business class to Prague!  So I've read they do have a wine country there, but if you ...

  I'm chilean and french (nobody is perfect...), and I enjoy running, good meat and wines (in any order).I hope to have my own wine in a few years, just for family drinking, nothing fancy. I'll plant 75% Cabernet Sauvignon (that's 375 vine plants) and 25% Syrah (125 plants), at about 50km south of Santiago (Chile). They will go close to the walnut... Read More

  Somewhere in these posts I swear I said something about having an inverse tax on alcohol.  I'm sure it was not the point of the original post, or I would spend a little time looking for it.  So, recapping my thoughts, I have thought for the last couple years that there should be an inverse tax on alcohol so that the cost per unit of ethanol (Eri...

  Company is coming. I've been told "they like red wine". I don't drink. People leave wine at our house. I have a bottle of Windwhistle Calif. Syrah and a Gnarly Head Merlot. Your site doesn't rate the WW Syrah and I didn't search for the Merlot. I have no obligation to wow our guests but I don't want to disappoint them. We've had good luck treati... Read More

  I absolutely love wine. Snooth is one of the reasons I love the mystique of wine because it  offers me a forum to discuss wine and all of it's nuances, it's history, it's wonder, it's character, it's beauty. I work very hard at my profession even though I have scaled it down to 3 days per week. After my work I love good food and love to imbibe i... Read More
