Jessyca - thank you! I will definitely check out Palmina and hopefully my palate and Palmina will become pals! I have not added Arneis or Tocai Friulano to my list so I'm on it! Thanks again!!

You might instead try PALmina :) I believe I liked the Arneis and the Tocai Friulano. They grow some other interesting varietals so a trip to the Lompoc wine ghetto might help you check some more of your list.

Palomino is not my Pal
My PAL-ate did not particularly care for the PALomino I recently tried in my quest for the century mark. I found it to be harsh, over the top of the mineral scale, and the little fruit I did get was excessively tart. Has anybody else here tried a Pa…

Erica Walter commented on Margie Tosch's blog post 'The Tipping Point: Tipping on Expensive Wine'
Wow, what an interesting post! Having spent a few years in the food service industry, I know I've always appreciated a good tip - and as a restaurant-going gal, I do try to tip generously when the service warrants it. However, your point about growi…

Great post, Mark! I agree fully, the day of paper marketing materials in general is most likely behind us! Time to get creative and explore other ways to connect with our intended audiences... most environmentally AND user friendly ways!

I'll look for it...are you on LinkedIn? You should join my Vintage Wine group, Wine Collectors Only, and Wine Review (where I started a subgroup called - Wine Cntury Club).

I had two different Torrontes - Cavas de Chacras & I think the other was Trapiche, but I can't be certain. It was the "house wine" at a restaurant at Las Lenas. The Bonarda was a 2005 "El Escondido" de Don Domenico... It was the most memorable aspec…

I went to the Mutineer Launch Party and all I got was this lousy hangover

It has been far too long since the actual event but eh, fuhgettaboutit. I had the thrilling chance to go to the Mutineer Magazine Launch Party at the Falcon in Hollywood back on May 18 - the same day as winecliQ Public Beta launch, may I add - and it was a total blast.

Red wine increases the female sex drive. Really?

Okay, now I'm not trying to get risque here with my first blog post on winecliQ, but today I looked over at the top wine news and saw this headline: "Red wine increases the female sex drive"



Really?

This is news?

Wait, why only the FEMALE sex drive?

The study was done by the Santa Maria Nuova… Continue

Hi Erica. Wow, you left me a comment a very long time ago and I'm just now seeing it (I haven't logged in in a long time). Sorry about that. I don't really have a must have wine right now. I have favorite varietals which are Zin and Shiraz though.

Erica,
I have achieved the Century mark. :) It has taken a while but I knocked off a lot of varietals as part of my WSET Diploma course. I will probably rack up another 100 or so by the time I enter the MW preparation course (which will not be for a few years as I am working on building up the Lionheart Wines brand -- my wines).

Hi Erica
Thanks for adding me. I prefer the red ones, but I love them all! :))
I do write about wines in my blog (unfortunally is only in Portuguese, but soon will be in english also).
The URL is www.vinhosdecorte.com.br. Check it out if you have any time.

Yum Yum! Sounds like a delicious dinner you had. Hope you Walla Walla west coasters don"t mind an east coast tar heel hanging out with you for a while.

Thanks for the welcome. I'm time-challenged so being active in all these communities can be hard. If it's a few days before I respond, don't give up on me! :)

Hi Erica! Sorry it took so long to get back to you! I went down to San Diego for the weekend, and am just now getting around to checking emails/messages/etc!
Birthday was great! Me & the BF went to Sea World! I havent been there in ages!

Well Erica...I do love to eat and that makes the wine business even more pleasurable...knowing how to cook and all. I love pairing the difficult (perceived) foods with fine wine. I have to love the hat "The Big O" on your picture...Go Big Green!!!

Yeah, I think you're reall lucky.
Unfortunatetly, I didn't have any wines from walla walla but I'd like to get new experiences. What do you think I could get? Could you give me any advices?

Last night I shared a bottle of Freemark Abbey (Cab) with a potential business partner, and had a bottle of Grancha Del Fuego with dinner...just back (last week) from a wine trip to the Niagara Escarpment where they have over 90 wineries...so as nice as the niceest in CA
