Every once in a while I take a trip through my wine journal – because it’s fun and also because I need to plan out my reviews. I don’t review every wine I try. There are times when I just want to drink a glass of wine without all the note-taking and sniffing and swirling,…
In wine, there are no coincidences. If someone mentions a wine to you, and you are destined to sip it, the universe will conspire to get you that wine. That’s what happened to me with recently with Red Diamond Chardonnay! It all started when The Winey Family was in Arizona. We met up with a…

“Hey, Mom, did you know that America’s oldest winery is right near here?” Oh, the joy in my Winey heart as the Winey Son, calling from West Point, uttered those happy words.
