Best of Cabo - Wine-Knows: Fine Wine & Gourmet Food Journeys for the Discerning Traveler


Read the full article and view the list of the best:
Wine-Knows: Fine Wine & Gourmet Food Journeys for the Discerning Traveler: Best of Cabo:

"I’m just returning from January in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.   I rented an apartment and did something I have never done --- I did not cook one lunch or dinner for the month.  I grew up on Mexican food and think of myself as somewhat of an expert, so I made it my personal mission to seek out Cabo’s best.  Here’s what floated to the top of my list (which includes many of our friends who visited opinions as well)."

Slate Says Drink Cheap Wine

Why You Should Be Drinking Cheap Wine - Slate Magazine:  'via Blog this'
"Finally, rest assured that cheap wine in the United States is good, to the extent that the term has any objective meaning. . . Reviews and recommendations are great for cars or televisions or overpriced wines, because bad decisions are expensive. If you hate your cheap bottle of wine, just uncork another."
Inside Scoop SF » The false promise of cheap wine:  'via Blog this'
"Oh, please. . . But ultimately the wine industry has hurt itself by portraying cheap wine as fancier than it is. It has created the illusion that $5 wine is fancy enough that you don’t need to spend a cent more. And it paves the way for silly articles like Slate’s, which only make an ongoing case for ignorance."
Inexpensive wine could be a good value.  I think in the end, if you approach it as everyday table wine, you probably won't get disappointed.  My two cents.

What Wine to Serve at Thanksgiving?

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.

Food, wine, golf - Monterey, Carmel

Downtown Monterey and Monterey Harbor as seen ...Image via WikipediaFood, wine, golf among Monterey, Carmel highlights:  'via Blog this'

Ahh, this is the perfecta of food, wine, golf, and travel all rolled into one.

The town of Carmel and the Monterey peninsula make for a wonderful experience.   Lots to see and do.  Don't miss the aquarium, cannery row, or the spectacular Spyglass Hill, Pebble Beach Golf Links and Cypress Point.
