Millennial Wino: Wine Blogger Conference 2008 - Day 1
http://millennialwino.blogspot.com/2008/10/wine-blogger-conference-2008-day-1.html
Friday, October 24, 2008. Wine Blogger Conference 2008 - Day 1. Here I am at the Wine Blogger Conference in Santa Rosa and we have JUST started the mad dash of tasting with wine makers! It's better. Christina from my table agrees, but for other reasons she's from there. Dark Horse Dry Creek Zin is up next. The winemaker is exactly what a winemaker should be - proud of his wine, rough around the edges, plaid shirt, pushing the envelope. His wine matches his style - bold, forward, and spicy. No...Kanzler P...

Pursuit of the Happy Grape: February 2009
http://pursuitofthehappygrape.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Pursuit of the Happy Grape. Keeping Wine Fun .: :. Thursday, February 12, 2009. My First Silver Oak. I haven't tasted many wines over the $75 price point.up until yesterday. I had the pleasure of enjoying my first taste of Silver Oak. Wine last night with a delicious dinner. I didn't look too closely at the bottle at first, only noticing that it was a Silver Oak Napa Cab. Secretly, I got really excited, but wanted to keep up my professional front while we ordered dinner and enjoyed conversation.

Pursuit of the Happy Grape. Keeping Wine Fun .: :. Wednesday, March 11, 2009. Holdredge at Barrel Tasting. For the past few Wine Road events, I have volunteered to help my favorite winery pour for all those winery-hopping wine lovers. Holdredge Winery is the dream of a couple in Healdsburg.and the wines they make are divine. I've mentioned before - their Wren Hop Pinot Noir is my favorite wine. Ever. Yep, ever. .

Millennial Wino: My New Rating System
http://millennialwino.blogspot.com/2008/04/my-new-rating-system.html
Wednesday, April 2, 2008. My New Rating System. I'm going to add in a rating system here.I'm thinking that since I love corks, and tend to keep them when I can, I'll just use those! 1 cork = No thanks, can I have a beer? 2 corks = Just ok, probably will not drink again. 3 corks = Good, will order/buy again, has enough going on to keep me interested. 4 corks = Yummy, will definitely order/buy again, fun things happening to explore.

We'll find out momentarily. Ok how about now. Not quite yet.the folks from CIA are grading papers. Ok, she's talking. Bob Ascher is ...

Millennial Wino: Saturday's Imbibing
http://millennialwino.blogspot.com/2008/04/saturdays-imbibing.html
Monday, April 7, 2008. Saturday night I met with my poker crew actually not to play poker, but to enjoy dinner, wine and conversation. We had some Belvedere Chardonnay, which was pretty good for a chard. Not too oaky or buttery (which I used to love, by the way) but not too acidic (which I'm starting to like more but not quite there yet). Overall, this was pleasureable to drink, a little bit of refreshment after a long week. 29 corks for overall ok-ness, but in general it was a little too boring.
