Authority: 412
Here’s another sparkling wine that I think is just awesome, and I found it for about $17. This one comes from Mumm Napa , and as you might guess by the name it’s from Napa Valley. One thing you might notice about sparking wine in the lower price range is that non-vintage is commonplace. You won’t see a ...6 days ago -

Schramsberg is my second visit. On a spellbindingly crisp, sunny morning I meet with Keith Hock, the winemaker here. Schramsberg reeks of history. When Jack and Jamie Davies brought the property in 1965 it was pretty much abandoned, and they decided to make wine here again. But they made an interesting decision. They ...1 week ago -

It’s rare that I like a movie or T.V. series or podcast or alien mind scan more than the book it’s based on (cause books are better. So there).

Blogging about things that I hate = too easy. Last night SciFi (I’m sorry, I absolutely refuse to use the ridiculous name Syfy) played the direct-to-DVD Dead Like Me movie, and it interested me enough to make me add the series to my Netflix queue. God, Brian Fuller can’t catch a break, can he? I think he’s ...2 weeks ago -
