The fall season has started encroaching upon us and the grilling season’s peak is ending (yes, you can grill all year long, but it’s best without snow on the grill). Saturday I had some excellent Lemon Pepper Chicken, grilled zucchini drizzled with olive oil, roasted red potatoes and green peppers, and of course, a spot [...]
Tim (of Winecast) has a good bit about his version of Virtual Wine Tasting. Given that he runs along the audio side of blogging, his tastings seem to have a more personal feel.
Wow, Meijer has some good advice on buying wine. I have to admit that I didn’t expect it. Today’s lesson is that wine doesn’t have to be purchased from a guy with a monocle who calls you sir. It could be just as easily bought from a teenager with bad skin. Just try [...]
It was suggested that Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel may be a better place to drink wine than what I had previously mentioned. There are also a couple other places at Disney to stop and sip the time away. But atmosphere, while important, only affects the taste marginally. It’s more of the fact that Epcot [...]
If you’re looking to drop about $4000+ on a bunch of wine (a few cases), you definitely need to check out Crushpad Wine. They even started a harvest blog this month. Their concept is very interesting and I’d love to get together with a group of people and try out a barrel. Very fun [...]
I wish. Actually I don’t, but it would be nice to have some good wine there. Besides, vacation is a good thing.
Another link to read up on is a bit more political. Indiana sucks for wine. No, we have some good wineries around, but you have to go to that winery to get [...]
Herr Gutenberg had some good ideas for getting stuff around, but it may be time to move on. The printed media does a good job at what it’s meant to do, but there are so many ways to change it and update it for electronic media. I am simply worried that by focusing too [...]
Alder, at Vinography.com, has an good post (with additional links) on an online wine tasting #14 for New New World Pinot Noir. A great concept for both wine tasting/sharing and for blogging. It seems like a great idea for one of my initial posts too. Unfortunately I don’t tend to drink a lot of Pinot [...]
It looks to me that my favorite comic has but a small wiki article for it. This could easily be an addition that I would be happy to adopt.
I must admit that my previous post might not have been entirely accurate. I shouldn’t bash boxed wines because, apparently they are the upcoming hit in the wine world. Aside from that though, I still wouldn’t drink it. Why? What is so bad? Honestly, the same reason you don’t go to Taco Bell for authentic [...]
