Posting... 3 Aug 2006 | 02:12 pm
It’s been forever, ok, just since February since I posted on the blog. Can’t believe it. Been a busy year in a lot of ways. The little software company I work for was acquired and things started to go...
Some juicy reds... a Vino 100 Tasting 21 Feb 2006 | 03:56 am
Just a few more quick notes today… A couple weeks ago I posted about Vino 100 out at Lakeway for WBW 18, but never got around to following up on some of the wines I tasted there at an evening tasting ...
"Gather" for wine... 17 Feb 2006 | 07:30 am
The wine tagged postings over at gather.com could have some interesting potential. Gather.com's only been around for a month. Have to watch it and see how it develops, but I'm not sure I see a signifi...
Posting again... 16 Feb 2006 | 05:08 pm
My posts have been few and far between lately. Lots of factors I suppose. Not the least of which is just a certain introspection as to whether I continue to enjoy taking the time to jot notes and thou...
WBW 19 announced 16 Feb 2006 | 05:00 pm
I see that Wine Blogging Wednesday number 19 has been announced. “When in Rhone”. Hosted by WineExpression. Looks to be a good one. The last WBW was interesting, but I much prefer the ones where we pi...
WBW 18 - wine shops that "feel the love" 1 Feb 2006 | 05:25 pm
Hard to believe another month has gone by already. This month's WBW theme (#18) is a bit different. It's about your wine shop rather than about a particular wine. There are actually quite a few intere...
Trentadue Old Patch Red 2003 Sonoma County Red wine 23 Jan 2006 | 02:47 pm
Tonight I wanted a red wine to go along with a steak - a filet, hand-rubbed with some stuff I got from the Perini Ranch Steakhouse. The Trentadue “Old Patch Red” turned out to be more than a match. W...
Wine Blog pointers... 23 Jan 2006 | 06:50 am
I ran across this article on wine blogs written last October, so probably considered old news – especially by internet time standards - but still, an interesting read.
A Burgundy Tasting 22 Jan 2006 | 03:32 pm
I had the pleasure of going to a tasting/class of Burgundy wines the other night at Vino 100. Naturally I took a few notes to capture here. I was surprised though that there were so few people (about ...
Just a poll - red or white? 11 Jan 2006 | 10:58 am
I ran across this cool polling gizmo done by dPolls. I think they do it better than most. I couldn't help but drop one into a post to just see how well it works. Anyway, what's your favorite? Come to ...
