I'm a little bit partial right now.  I just returned from visiting family in Portland, OR.

So, I've got two recommendations, go with both:
  1. Choose a lovely Oregon Pinot Noir.  On my trip home, I learned that Riedel has designed and sells a wine glass specific for them.
  2. I just love the dry Alsatian whites.  So I agree. Go with Trimbach and Weinbach.

I'm Thrilled About The Wine-Knows Travel Blog

I'm so excited to see our good friends at Wine-Knows Travel Inc. launch their blog, Wine-Knows: Fine Wine and Gourmet Food Journeys for the Discerning Traveler.

Sante' and Cin-Cin!

In case you're wondering, that's me (in the photo) during the 2008 Wine-Knows Travel tour from Bordeaux to Collioure.  (I'm all smiles!)

Reminiscing About 3 Star Michelin in France

View while waiting for dinner at l'Auberge de l'Ill in Illhaeusern, France - 3 star Michelin restaurant
I was in conversation with some folks at work, and found myself reminiscing about a 3 star Michelin experience at L'Auberge de L'Ill in Illhaeusern.

If you're researching 3 star ratings, then check out this table of Michelin 3 Star Restaurants in Europe 2010, 2009 and 2008.
