    In a way, my entire recent trip to New Zealand was three weeks of “discovery”, so it was hard to figure out what to write about here. I finally settled on the most basic element: there is so much more to New Zealand wine than the Sauvignon Blanc it has

    Many wine drinkers have experienced this at least once in our lives: We go to a nice region, visit one or more wineries, and taste several wines. At a certain point, simply, we feel good: the place is lovely, the view looks perfect, the company is pleasant. And the wine

    What We’re Drinking – 2014 Rombauer Cabernet Sauvignon

    Rombauer's 2014 Cabernet is a rich, luscious wine that would compliment a great steak or stand on its own as an evening sipper. It is inky black in presentation, with a nose and palate that tell all its secrets. Blackcurrant, toast, and vanilla exclaim Cabernet Sauvignon and new oak, but

    “What’s for dinner?” asks my wife, as she’s wont to do. “Lentils,” I reply. Though she attempts to hide it, I can see in her eyes she’s crestfallen. “With sausage,” I add hastily. Later, though, at the table, she’s eating heartily. I cautiously request a verdict. “Much better than I

    Milwaukee is so famous for beer that its baseball team is named the Brewers, and a guy used to slide into a vat of beer every time one of them hit a home run. Laverne and Shirley ran for seven years, into the early '80s, featuring two women who capped bottles in

      Rocca's Grigsby Cabernet is big, beautiful, and delightfully complex. The color is very dark, opaque but for the very edges. Huge aromas roil up in waves - blackberries, black currant, and eucalyptus. The palate opens in layers, starting with black cherry, then shifting to black fruit on the mid-palate, adding eucalyptus

    This is a powerful brute of a wine dressed in lace and finery. The nose smells like freshly-baked blackberry pie, with black fruit, pastry and vanilla aromas exploding out of the glass. The vanilla runs through the palate, as well, which is loaded with blackberry, mulberry, and blueberry. There is a

    Almost five years ago, I visited Mount Etna for the first time. Back in 2012, it already seemed like the world's most famous volcanic wine region was exploding in terms of global interest, having transitioned from near abandonment in the 1980s to 60 serious producers.
