I had read so much great press about this winery and it's wines.I was not disappointed. Everything they were tasting was great, but I especially loved the Gravura red blend. I have tried and loved Javier Alfonso's Idilico. Label, so I was excited to try his Pomum wines. Alfonso poured me the Tinto, a Tempranio/Garnacha/Graciano blend...

Welcome to Dallas Wine Chick. Archived entries for WBC12. August 8, 2016. Five Years of Wine Blogger Conference Recaps: #WBC16 Fun Begins Next Week. Let’s start with 2010 in Walla Walla, Washington. As you can see from the post. This was my first wine bloggers conference and I was really playing by the rules. To me, the moment by moment recap is amusing, but I still had glimpses of the type of coverage I write today, but without the #goingrogue experience. That was hosted by the San Francisco Wine School...

Northwest Cork and Fork. Adventures in Northwest Wine and Food. Tuesday, June 4, 2013. Tulpen Cellars Grenache.Keep it Simple. So, unless you have been living under a rock for the past couple weeks, I’m sure you have heard about the Skagit River Bridge Collapse that happened on 5/23. This is right smack in the middle of my neck of the woods. Due to the increased traffic on all the side roads to get around this detour, my major grocery shopping has been (voluntarily) limited. I mean, I live in rural.

Not to be deterred by the downpour outside, I set up my lawn chairs and tables in my garage, busted out the paella pan, and opened up some of my favorite Roses. Dusted Valley Ramblin Rose. Crisp and clean, a perfect deck sipper. Paella, R...

Northwest Cork and Fork. Adventures in Northwest Wine and Food. Saturday, January 5, 2013. Take The Bull By The Horns with Idilico.

It is also the name of the only Washington winery focusing on Spanish varietals exclusively. Spanish winemaker, Javier Alfonso has created a line up of wines that are an excellent value for the money. I picked up this wine from Full Pull Wines. Use Me and Abuse Me.
