I am continuing to live for text messages and Facebook posts as The Winey Daughter studies film in Australia and New Zealand for the month. (Winey Tasting Notes: The Winey Daughter Down Under and Layer Cake Shiraz, Winey Tasting Notes: Down Under with Lobster Reef Sauvignon Blanc) At least, she says she’s studying film. As…
It was pretty easy to decide on a wine to review this first week of 2016. I simply followed the Winey Daughter (metaphorically, unfortunately) to New Zealand. Yes, the child is off on another educational adventure: this time taking a 3 week film class that will have her start out in New Zealand (where they…
I seem to be on a Sauvignon Blanc kick these days. It may be the direct result of summer finally arriving here in Cleveland. And the temperature is finally in the 80’s instead of the humidity level and/or chance of rain being in the 80’s. It seems that these conditions have me reaching for a…

The Winey Family (minus the Winey Son because he took his own spring break trip with his buddies) has recently returned from a wonderful spring break cruise. Yes I said “cruise”.. and don’t start with me. No, we didn’t get sick, the boat was fine, the toilets worked and all was well. If I sound…

Sauvignon BlancGrapes I know that it sometimes it seems like there’s a day for every little thing under the sun. In the month of June alone, you can celebrate National Yo Yo Day (June 6), National Bubba Day (no I don’t know and don’t want to know what it means but it’s on June 2),…
