Good Day, Feastlings. Two wine tastings to go on about this weekend, so here they are in a nutshell: The first is Kevin’s weekly Saturday tasting, and the wines are the wines of our friends and neighbors. Three wines from down here in southern Arizona (Callaghan Graciano, Dos Cabezas “El Norte” and Sierra Bonita Cabernet […]
Well, Indeed, Feastlings. Many’s the time we’ve tried to have a tasting of sparkly wines between Christmas and New Year’s Day, and many’s the time only a few of you have shown much interest. But by Sunday, you’ll have had a huge dose of family and holiday obligation, and you’ll be looking to unwind. Our […]
Hello, Winesippers. While cult wines tend to be those with a hold on the psyche of the wine-buying public, the definition can vary. For some it’s style- the huge Napa Cabernets that got the cult ball rolling, like Harlan Estate, Grace Family or Screaming Eagle. For some it’s the winemaker- Manfred Krankl of Sine Qua […]
Hello, Wine Sippers, In our continuing efforts to remind people to turn the bottle around and see what’s on the other label, we’re continuing with our Trust Your Importer series for this month’s wine tasting. Our guest this month will be Noel Patterson, who’ll be sharing the wines of the Rare Wine Company, importers of […]
Hello, All. A few years ago, I was visiting Domaine Serene in the Willamette Valley. A lot of people know about Domaine Serene- there’s a big, beautiful winery with opulent tasting rooms and guest houses and they make gorgeous, Burgundian-style wine. We strolled next door, though, and there was a vineyard with a modest, log-cabin […]
Oho, Wine Tasters. One wine event on the heels of the next this week. As to the first event, our Last Sunday tasting this month is the second installment in our Wines of the Southwest series of tastings. This month’s southwest: Italy. While Italy is geographically lacking in the Southwest department in that it mostly […]
Hello, Feastlings. One of our longtime favorite importers of Argentine wines, Vine Connections, has opened the Chilean floodgates on Tucson. We’ll be hosting a tasting in our private dining room from 5 to 7 pm on Thursday, September 19th. There’ll be hors d’oeuvres and wine, though it won’t be in our usual format. You can […]
Howdy, my Southwestern Amigos. I’ve been lucky enough to spend time tooling around not only the Southwest here at home, but also make a brisk trot across another Southwest: Languedoc-Roussillon. So when Mary Grace Rodarte suggested we dedicate this month’s tasting to wines of southwestern France, I did a little jump for joy. We’ll be […]
Hi, wine tasters. I like to think we bring fun and interesting wines in each month for you to taste, but we’re often constrained by the theme of the tasting to mostly more tried-and-true varietals. There comes a point in serving wine, however, where we start wanting you to taste what we want you to […]
Hi, wine tasters. We all know a little something about wine. Yes, the ancient Greeks filled their amphorae with wine, and yes it made its way with Greek slaves to what is now Italy, where it was refined and finessed and it evolved into something new and complex. Then the Romans took grapevines with them […]
