VdPs, understated elegance, and baron philippe

VdPs, understated elegance, and baron philippeCharmed  I was by a short piece on Wall Street’s On Wine column, which is my favorite online wine read, which addressed the precarious task of selecting wines to bring to holiday parties; this engagement I met with two evenings prior. It is an amusing idea, actually;…See More

agents of ease and their occasional value

agents of ease and their occasional valueThere are wines meant to be agents of ease, of breeziness, aimed to step easily into the realm of universality. Wines relatively incomplex, but not in the way of rusticity--they are polished by the seasoned winemaker's hand-- and whose simplicity is meant to be congenial and popularized. Yes, of course if one asks a critic of the whole New…See More

discordant satisfaction, sonoma chardonnay, and winter

discordant satisfaction, sonoma chardonnay, and winterBeing alive on this earth of course never provides a guarantee of consistency. Yes, we are verily creatures of habit, with many of us [exponentially] more so adherent to familiarity; but fortunately, due to that discordant miscellany that is our 'nature', we are also at turns creatures of curiosity. The human soul allows us dips into…See More

for mondavi, among the patron saints of all things both modern and classic

for mondavi, among the patron saints of all things both modern and classicAs I write this, I have picked up Woodbridge wines twice in just the past week; and countless times have I cheerfully accepted, ordered, or purchased a Woodbridge wine. And so increasingly inspired by the Mondavi story will I begin reading The House of Mondavi by Julia Flynn Siler--the story of the family's winemaking history; with this short piece I aim to begin a larger exploration of the Mondavi legacy.…See More

decadent, plush napa wine for which to be thankful

decadent, plush napa wine for which to be thankfulDecadence. Warmth. Exuberance. Simplicity. Pleasure. Love. The holidays incite these sensations in us; ideally, each of us. Thanksgiving is a time to pause, to participate in pure pleasure; necessarily, if we are fortunate, the time calls for us to expose ourselves a bit and to be unabashedly participative in the whole process--and then to release ourselves from the guilt that may accompany us by doing so, in lieu of the quotidian, the banal,…See More

comment on yao ming's ridiculous napa wine venture

Comment on Yao Ming's ridiculous Napa wine ventureRolling my eyes at this. I agree with Dirk and with Stan. You know, I understand the opportunity that would be presented to a winemaker with this--who could disdain such a well heeled proposal to utilize the winemaker's expertise--hard to deny that kind of compensation, surely. But…See More

unusual: a rant, a frown. my heart.

Tuesday, November 22, 2011unusual: a rant, a frown. my heart.A piece recently appeared on PalatePress, (the publication itself I like quite a bit):  'Parker is right, no one wants ageworthy wines'. Much of this is sustainable, valid information the author points to. Basically, the notion that purchasing/cellaring/investing for future optimization and enjoyment of…See More

fitting chilean wine into the ambient, the affective

fitting chilean wine into the ambient, the affectiveFor most wine lovers, wine is often the most veracious intermediary to the spirit of a distant culture.  Wine provides a temporary intimacy with that culture, a cognizance.  This is an essential need of ours as human beings, as Westerners, particularly—we often neglect to step into the wisps of beauty, to settle into the visceral affects offered by life’s chromatism. And so wine reminds us.  It reminds us to settle into the affects of time…See More

progressive australian wine, aberration from the commonplace

progressive australian wine, abberation from the commonplaceAn evening, divergent a bit from conventional [without going there], rounded off and animated by a truly divergent and original wine. As much as I extoll tradition and legacy, especially with wines, an aberration from the prototypical can often be the revivifying, the motivating charge one needs. In each arena of life, we need to be continuously in flux; our spirits need spells of discursiveness, especially where engaged in artforms,…See More

real friends gift chateauneuf du pape

real friends gift chateauneuf du papeI contend most often that my own inclination leans towards wines of the Rhone, the second largest in acreage and production volume of French wine regions; most beautiful, amazing. But what is it with this decisiveness--at once inclusive, encompassing the breadth of all its highy differentiated appellations, with the most divergence in style between the Northern and Southern Rhone;…See More

smoking loon, true perspectives of value, satisfaction

smooking loon, true perspectives of value, satisfactionI often find that there is more gratification to be found with wines that represent tremendous value. Value. A concept seemingly trite in consumerism. We are subject to endless marketing campaigns, endorsements, etc, etc, centered around the excellent 'values' for the dollar. Reaching back into my Business degree background, in highly simplified terms, the amount of 'value' assigned to a purchase equates to one's 'satisfaction' relative to…See More

High volume is mandatory, but we have an order for a smaller exploratory shipment. If you have a slate of bottles that you think would work well, please contact me if your wineries want to take part.

Looking to buy cheap wine for China

Hello!
