EAST VILLAGE WINE GEEK DECEMBER 19, 2008 TAKING THE STRESS OUT AND BRINGING IN THE FUN TO HOLIDAY WINE SHOPPING The thing about Bordeaux is they don’t have to be expensive to be good. Ah, the Holidays. Speaking of the perfect gift what about wine. promise. MORE >>	WINE TASTING GUY SEPTEMBER 27, 2008 Wines for the New (Jewish) Year UNDER $30 And two wines in their appellation series that are of interest are the Carmel "old vine" Carignan & the Carmel Petit Sirah. couldn't stay away from my beloved Bordeaux varietals for long. When speaking of Bordeaux varietals we are referring to the 5 varietals permitted in a Bordeaux wine. Let's start with Carmel.

Polaner tasting standouts

had a Bordeaux Blanc made by Arietta called the "Arietta White Wine on White Keys 2006" that was a blend of Sauvignon Blanc & Semillon and had an interesting breadiness with some melon & pineapple aromas. At a wholesale price of about $150/bottle the 2005 Gemstone Cabernet (blended with 6% Petit Verdot) was another BIG NAPA CAB. MORE >>

Kosher Wine Extravaganza - Unusual (but gooood) wines

could write about the fabulous Israeli Cab or the not so fabulous French Bordeaux, the overrated California red, or awful Israel Merlot (it was BAD) but who cares?!?!! Merlot, Cab, Syrah - been there done that. lighter wine than a Cab, merlot or Syrah, Barbera is said to be the most (or second most) planter varietal in Italy. MORE >>

Skurnik Tasting - my favorites (finally)

And finally the Peay 2005 "La Bruma" Estate Syrah, which I was told came from a very cool Syrah site, was also not a fruit bomb like some of the other Syrah's I tried. The 2003 "1er Etage" Cab Franc was blended with 2% Petit Verdot and had very subtle green notes but was was nice as well. Great stuff. MORE >>

Italian Wine tasting (Sicily) & Pizza

They were not Bordeaux style wines. No Cab Franc, Petit Verdot or even any Syrah (shiraz). I just got back from a fabulous impromptu Italian wine & pizza tasting with several of my wine tasting group members (and some guests/possible new members??). There are so many things I can write about. No Cabernet Sauvignion. MORE >>

WBW 34 - Washington State Cabernet

Probably because Cabernet based wines and Syrahs are not my passion. These are Bordeaux blend wines with most of the grapes coming from what is supposedly one of Washington's best vineyard sites - Ciel de Cheval, or Horse Heaven Vineyard. Hard to believe it's already Wine Blogging Wednesday time again. Dark purple and inky. MORE >>
