Chardonnay - A Much Derided Grape - Part I

I hate Chardonnay unless it is bubbly and comes, preferably, from Champagne. Though I will admit that Chablis can be quite nice on occasion. And come to think of it, the Jura is pretty awesome! Oh yeah, and those non-Chablis Burgundies can sometimes be worth a sniff... My previous experiences with this grape are mostly of extreme boredom punctuated by the occasional truly memorable wine. I felt like...

2008 Grgich Hills Estate Fume Blanc, Napa

Visitors to Napa Valley, even those on their first trip, have a hard time missing the Grgich Hills winery, which sits prominently on the west side of Highway 29, its flower beds almost pushed right up against the edge of the blacktop. Of course, when the winery was established in the late 1970s there was a lot less traffic on that same highway, and founder Miljenko "Mike" Grgich was a young...

Waltz Vineyards' next release will be the first for a new semi-dry white blend called Fusion

A couple of things out of Waltz Vineyards in Manheim, a new Pennsylvania winery that I haven't been bashful about calling one of my favorites since it opened earlier this year. One, they're able to ship UPS now, so anyone ordering wine can have it on their table in a day or two. Meanwhile, the winery is expanding its hours beginning Monday, opening its doors six days a week through the end of the year...

New King of Corks?

Ask a traditionalist about wine-and-food pairings, and be prepared for a lecture on the virtues of serving Rioja with rosemary grilled lamb chops or Champagne with oysters. Let the fuddy-duddies harvest these low-hanging grapes. Gary Vaynerchuk has fresher, zanier ideas. In a September episode of his video blog, "Wine Library TV," he raved about how the 2007 Landmark Overlook Chardonnay enhanced...

What to drink on Thanksgiving: Napa cabernet.

Cabernet sauvignon—and particularly the cabernet produced in California's Napa Valley—is the signature American wine. When a Napa cab, the 1973 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars, beat out some leading French wines in the Judgment of Paris, it heralded the coming-of-age of American viticulture and gave the phrase Napa cabernet international cachet. Nowadays, however, that phrase is more apt to elicit...

Twitter Taste Live - Hahn Estates Wines

I was fortunate enough to be able to take part in a Twitter Taste Live wine tasting on Saturday, November 14. I must confess - a few confessions here. A few years ago I spent 10 days in Central California. On our drive down from the San Jose Airport to Avila Beach, Hahn was the first tasting room we stopped at. We new nothing about their wines then, but saw a sign and pulled off Highway 101 and began...

Roughly translated, Gemischter Satz means "mixed matter" which describes the...

Single Ma Wants Me to Write About Booze.

It's actually not a bad topic for a post this week... The other night, I went to see a play at St Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn ( The New Electric Ballroom , well worth seeing. You can get discounted tickets using a code from Broadway Box ). Before the show, we went to the nearby Water Street Restaurant. It's a convenient place for a pre-show meal, and they have really good burgers, but we were incredibly...
