  I’ve mentioned this idea in the past, I think, but Judy Beardsall says it nice and simply: Friends, The importer’s name on a label tells me almost as much about the wine as the name of the vineyard it comes from.

  Anything Wine — Authority: 118
  After reading the story in the Wall Street Journal about “ Why wine ratings are badly flawed ?” it got me thinking.

  Fermentation: The Daily Wine Blog — Authority: 490
  It shouldnt be too difficult to send back a glass or a bottle of wine that your server delivered to your table. After all, if you are worried about what your server will think just keep in mind they are not responsible for the production of the wine so its not likely theyll take offense. But what about when you send ...

• Wine Vidcast 4: Two German Rieslings

  
  Wine For Newbies — Authority: 114
  German wines are wonderful, but the entire topic can be, well, hard to learn. The ancient looking wine labels, hard-to-pronounce German names (hard for some of us, anyway), and words like “kabinett” or “trockenbeerenauslese” can send the faint-of-heart running toward a bottle of Chardonnay. If this is you, ...

  Fermentation: The Daily Wine Blog — Authority: 490
  Most people understand the cost of smoking. These costs tend most often to be measured in years taken off a smokers life.

  Dreams. The kind you have when slumbering. I can say without equivocation that one of the effects of having quit smoking so very recently is an enhanced vividness of my nighttime dreams.

  Fermentation: The Daily Wine Blog — Authority: 490
  Over the years there were some people who, upon learning that I was a smoker, became very interested in getting me to quit.

  Fermentation: The Daily Wine Blog — Authority: 490
  The implements and tools associated with the simple act of drinking wine are so varied and so numerous, youd think it a complicated thing, when in fact, its merely a matter of opening a package, pouring a liquid into a vessel and lifting that vessel to ones lips.
