Had quite a few excellent Louis Martini wines in their wine cellar this evening. I know, it didn't happen if there aren't photos. I'll post one when I get a couple copies from someone. Best was the Monte Rosso Cab.

Had a little tasting at home tonight. The port is my favorite, followed closely by the Lot 1.

Santa Barbara has some great ones. They have an urban wine tour area. About 15 tasting rooms in the downtown area and you can walk most of them.

Wine tends to bring good memories. Rarely do you drink wine when sad or depressed.

I've got a bogle essential red going now. Will be using it in a side dish tomorrow. They say if you can't drink it, you shouldn't cook with it.

I cook with wine everyday and would never drink it. Does everyone say that?

Some do. Not everyone likes to drink wine, but it still adds great flavor to food. It's more that one shouldn't use "cooking wine." Saw it on food network, so must be true.

Had some great champagne and wines yesterday. Thought I'd share.

Silver oak tonightView attachment 113217

Very nice! Opened an '08 Silver Oak Thanksgiving. It was decanted, had to sit for about three hours before it was ready. First sip, quite frankly, was awful. Something amazing happened over three hours.
