• Enough Already! Just Drink Merlot

  

  How many articles have been written about the “Sideways Effect” of Merlot? It’s true Miles is a wine snob with a passionate dislike for Merlot, at least till the end of the movie when he reveals his favorite wine is Chateau Cheval Blanc – a Merlot, Cabernet Franc blend. However, further investigation reveals two points,…

• Beat the Summer Heat with Rias Baixas Albariño

  

  This summer in North Texas has been oppressively hot. I typically do not avoid a certain grape or color of wine due to the season. However, when the mercury is well over the 100 mark, I am not thinking about hearty foods, instead I want something light and refreshing. More than anything my food choice…

• How to Give the Gift of Wine

  

  You know the saying, “It is better to give than receive.” This may be true in many occasions but not when it comes to wine. Receiving wine is awesome. Giving wine can sometimes be daunting. How much does price matter? Which variety to give? Does the receiver even drink wine? All good questions that hopefully…

• Celebrating Napa & Sonoma with #MerlotMe

  

  Honestly, this is a hard article for me to write. With Napa, Sonoma, and Mendocino counties engulfed in over two dozen fires that I witnessed firsthand on Monday I have struggled this week to write about wine. I mean really, who wants to discuss the fact that October is #MerlotMe month right now. Frankly, I…

• Summer Grilling & #Wine Pairings with #WinePW

  

  I don’t use my grill much in the winter time. Sure I will throw on a steak from time to time but in the winter I rely heavily on my dutch oven, stove top, and oven to prepare warm weather foods such as chili, stews, and braised meats. As the warm weather approaches I look…

• Bubbles for Breakfast? It Must Be Brunch!

  

  Brunch: a combination of breakfast and lunch usually eaten between the hours of 11am and 3pm. Brunch is believed to have originated in England in the late 19th century, becoming popular in the US in the 1930’s. In China brunch is observed dim sum style; South Africa brunch is unique because it only consists of…
