After the Great War, we drink “California Champagne”

Because the United States Senate did not ratify the Treaty of Versailles in 1919, we still have “California Champagne”.

Rosé; so much more than White Zinfandel

Now, spare me the hogwash that you do not like sweet wines or scoff at me with your uppity personality that rosé is for grannies or pretentious old yacht owners. Oh no no no, rosé is some of the most versatile wines you will ever taste. Ever hear of Brosé? Yes, rosé is for all.

Is expensive wine worth the price?

Is there really a difference between a $20 bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon and a $150 bottle? Can a person really tell the difference between the two?

Easing into red wine

The wines of East Palestine

On February 3rd, 2023 a train travelling through East Palestine in Columbiana County caught fire, derailed and eventually released vinyl chloride and butyl acrylate into the air. These chemicals are typically used in plastic manufacturing and the risks to the people and environment are countless.

Bordeaux Made Easier……well, maybe

Bordeaux and much of France when it comes to wine can be quite intimidating. This is mostly because of how their wines are labelled. A person must have a little knowledge about France and their wine laws to understand what varietal (grape) is or is not in the bottle.
