Suggestions for Wine Lovers When Visiting Las Vegas

February 9, 2010 – 8:32 am

This week due to the weather conditions I just can’t recommend visiting the east coast area of the US for wineries soon. Do make plans to visit the area wineries when the weather is a bit better. Our street was finally plowed yesterday and sidewalks have not been touched. We had plans to visit a […]

The Taste of a Messina Hof Dessert Wine

February 3, 2010 – 1:00 am

I recently enjoyed a Messina Hof late harvest wine. This is an easy wine to enjoy. The Messina Hof Angel Riesling Late Harvest 2007 was wonderful. While the wine was sweet, the wine was balanced with acid making it very enjoyable. The aroma was fragrant with nuances of flowers and fruit including pineapple, peach and […]

Don’t Turn Down a Chance to Help at a Winery

January 30, 2010 – 9:43 am

Yesterday we spent a couple of hours at Tin Lizzie Wineworks helping, winemaker, Dave Zuchero organizing and cleaning. Other than being a very cold day, as long as one stayed inside and moved, we were okay. The camaraderie that exists when working on a common goal is delightful. We asked questions and learned more from […]

Regusci Winery Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

December 16, 2009 – 10:35 am

Recently while visiting family and friends out of state, we had the opportunity to enjoy a wine from Napa Valley. Our host chose a wine from Regusci Winery. This was a 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon, Angelo’s Vineyard. The sommelier commented that this wine was in limited production. Only 794 cases were produced. I usually enjoy a […]

Winery Newsletters

June 24, 2009 – 8:58 am

I enjoy receiving newsletters from wineries. Some are better than others but they all let readers know what’s happening at a particular time of the year at their winery. Some go above and beyond by also including recipes, wine information and dramatic photos. One of my favorite winery newsletters is from Messina Hof Winery & […]

What is Your Idea of a Winery?

June 13, 2009 – 9:07 am

After visiting 400 wineries in the US, Canada, Italy and England, we have discovered each one is unique. Ultimately it brings about the question, just what is a winery? In general, a winery is a place that produces wine. This is so general it leaves many questions. To be a “real” winery, does a winery […]

Old Winery Buildings

June 11, 2009 – 9:16 am

I love old buildings. It never ceases to amaze me that what appears to be a perfectly good building can be ripped down and replaced with a new building. At times that can be a good thing, especially if the building was poorly constructed in the first place. However, buildings built 30 years ago shouldn’t […]

Laurello Vineyards

June 4, 2009 – 8:31 am

An email from Laurello Vineyards in Ohio today reminded me that summer is not really here yet according to the calendar and the temperature. After winter’s unseasonably cold temperatures, I am already determined not to complain about the summer heat at home or at wineries. However, the email suggested that anyone attending Laurello’s Friday and Saturday evening outdoor […]

May 22, 2009 – 7:53 am

With Memorial Day Weekend here, have you made your plans? Picnics are popular but how can you make yours special? Add a bottle of wine to your picnic basket. Since picnics are casual and sometimes spontaneous events, this could be the day to experiment with a new grape varietal, a new winery or wine region. […]
