Naked and Unoaked

I'm not sure if I have written about Four Vines Unoaked Chardonnay but it is so very tasty I feel it's ok to keep talking about. I love the fresh flavor of peaches and floral. This wine is not aged in oak barrels so it does not have that nutty flavor. Check out my pics! I got an awesome shot of the back of the bottle which gives great info on the wine. Cheers!

Wine in the Woods- Blog One

I don't know about you wine lovers but I am overly excited about the upcoming event here in Maryland called the Wine in the Woods. There are about 3 days left until this monumental event. I will be there this weekend covering all of the wonderful joy of the festival. I will be blogging about the food, wine, people, music, and wine educational seminars. Stay posted so that you don't miss anything. In order to get ready for the party, the sponsors of the event have created an app strictly for the wine in the woods. Yes..... there's an app for this, lol. You can find out more information on the event as well as download the app (like I did) on their website http://www.wineinthewoods.com/. Hope to see you there!!!

Collectibles that beat the stock market

*Article courtesy msn money 

Even people who don’t know the difference between rose and cabernet have heard of Chateau Lafite Rothschild. Demand from emerging markets is boosting the value of many vintages of this iconic French maker.

"For years, a 1982 Chateau Lafite Rothschild was valued at $500 a bottle," said Frank Martel, director of fine wine for Heritage Auctions. "Suddenly it catapulted to averages of $50,000 for a case for a while and has now settled down to about $42,000 -- or more than $3,300 a bottle." That’s a difference of 600%.

A Reason To Wine

I was at the Decanter wine event and came across this fabulous stand that sold gorgeous wine stoppers. For the Diva in me, I fell in love with the stiletto shoe bottle toppers. But that's not all this little store sold. There were beer bottle openers, swizzle sticks, cork screws and more. Check out the web page for more http://www.areasontowine.net/index.html. Happy Shopping!!
