Quote of the Day
"Wine is constant proof that God loves us and loves to see us happy."
- Ben Franklin

TempranilloVino Puerta Alcala Tinto Reserva Tempranillo, Madrid, Spain- Bright and intense red cherry color. Excellent ripe fruit in nose, perfectly assembled with spice notes due to aging in fine wood. Tasty and well balanced in the mouth, with a fine tannin that covers the mouth in elegance. Pair with red meats and grilled vegetables. Drink within the next 5 years. $27.99

Food and wine pairing: Pinot Noir and Chinese food. Interesting.

Mastering the margarita. It really is a perfect drink, and equally perfect for summertime.

The new technology of spraying vineyards. Better than the old technology, although I'm still anti-chemical.

A new quality control system has been implemented in Bordeaux. Seems like a good idea, but what do I know?
