| | | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE APRIL 26, 2009 Ethics and My Blog When I write about a wine I tell you where i drank it - I never talk about a wine as if I drank it at home, when in reality I tried a sip of it at a trade tasting. was hosting a wine dinner and I asked him where I could purchase a dry Chenin Blanc with some age on it, and he generously offered this wine as a gift. doubt it. | | WINE TASTING GUY APRIL 30, 2008 Polaner tasting standouts But now, my long overdue summary of the wines I was able to try at the Polaner tasting. Maybe given my "neophyte" status, I try to taste as many wines as possible and miss the point.

WINE TASTING GUY | FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 29, 2008 Better Wine Bar experiences
I was fine with that as a nice South African Chenin Blanc seemed like a nice wine to start the evening with. We were offered multiple tastes before ordering.

BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE | MONDAY, MARCH 3, 2008  Three Loire 05's for the Cellar
If my recent tastes mean anything, this is not hype - the wines are just excellent. This wine is like a prizefighter in training - no sweet or fatty foods, lots of sleep, and definitely no sex, but this is just training. I'm guessing that people will eventually look to this as a benchmark for 2005 Loire Valley Chenin Blanc. MORE >>
