Stags Leap District has long been perhaps my favorite Napa Valley subappellation for Cabernet. Made properly, Stags Leap Cabs tend to be more elegant than others from warmer parts of the valley. Stags Leap is in the southern part of the valley, so it gets cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean, allowing grapes to develop ripe flavors with less sugar (and thus less potential alcohol) than a few miles north....

BONFIRE bubbles! Why not capture the seasonal mood with a sparkling Aussie shiraz? This stylish sparkler is full of intense raspberry-ripple flavours, but full-bodied enough to make it a good match with devils-on- horseback and moreish little savouries.

http://blogs.dallasobserver.com/unfairpark/2009/11/oh_thank_heavens_7-elevens_mak.php Good wine? Well, maybe - but the price is certainly right.... no word if it'll be in the slurpie machine. Dallas-based 7-Eleven's had a few proprietary wines on shelves for some time, among them Sonoma Crest and Thousand Oaks, but today comes word that the convenience store's actually in the private-label business...

We follow this up with a Gamay from Roundstone (http://www.roundstonewine.com.au/), a winery that earlier this year was destroyed in [...]

From the heart of Washington wine country... Day Two of Walla Walla Fall Release weekend. Today is a beautiful, crisp clear day in Walla Walla with clouds draped like a blanket over the Blue Mountains. I am happy to report, as local readers Denise and Catie commented yesterday, the raining dirt that welcomed us as we arrived in to town Thursday was quite anomalous. Frankly, I'm glad Denise noticed...

It was after traveling the world and learning about the global water crisis that the 30-year-old realized he could...

On October 31, 2009, Halloween, we went to the Congruence release party to pick-up our long awaited 2007 Congruence Cabernet , The Maiden Voyage. I have discussed on this site the evolution of this wine. It's always great seeing friends, and especially smiling friends pouring Cabernet. The few glasses I had there were dark and seamless with loads of fruits and legs like a Super Model. I could not wait...
Two Dogs, a Flamingo and a Bottle of Wine (Free subscription) | 11/06/2009
It's always good to have friends who call and say, "I want to open a good bottle, what are you doing?" The answer in this case was, "I'm on my way." The 1999 Penfold's Grange was the star of the evening. It was decanted for a little more than an hour. The color was inky dark, almost black. Initially the nose was totally closed but with some time in the decanter blueberries, blackberries,...

In 1997, Plumpjack, a 10,000 case Napa winery producing ultra-premium Cabernet Sauvignon bottled half of its 1997 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon with screw caps. You might ask why they would so such a thing. According to PlumpJack, six to seven percent of all wines are corked and this is not a statistic that PlumpJack [or the wine industry in general] is willing to accept. Gordon Getty, founder of PlumpJack,
