Messages in a Bottle: The Dog Days of Wine

Stacked akimbo in the corner of my kitchen table, now leaning at a somewhat crazy angle, is the two-month-old pile

My First Message In a Bottle

I’m very proud to announce something new here at Vinography. Today marks the launch of my position as the monthly

Three wines to drink over dinner and a discussion

Three wines to drink over dinner and a discussion of a dystopian future. I’d definitely want a bottle of all three of these if I were trapped in an underground silo 144 stories deep. Time to drink the @domainedelajanasse Chaupin, I think, but it was rich and delicious. The @pichlerkrutzler Grüner was singing and could clearly go another 12 years, while the @domainevadinplateau was gulpable in its Meunier berry and zero-dosage crispness. A fantastic trio.

A really pleasurable meal at @birdsong_sf who just earned their second Michelin star recently. Definitely one of the best fine dining options available in the city at the moment. If you haven’t had that cornbread slathered with caviar you have missed out.

Two special bottles for a special and poignant evening with old friends. Both the wines and the friends delivered in spades.

Hard to get enough of this wine, one of California

Hard to get enough of this wine, one of Californias best renditions of this grape variety. Lean, stony, but with the wonderful grapefruit and quince notes that you hope for. Great acidity and the ability to richen and fatten up with time in the bottle. It’s always a struggle, though, not to open them young @ownrooted.
