Gifts Of Wine

Last week we wrote about Gifts of Food.  Well, if you have wine lovers in your circle of friends, family and colleagues - you'll never go wrong with a thoughtfully chosen gift of wines.  If you don't know what the person's favorites are; it's easy to find out basics - red vs. white, a love of the bubbly (or not), chardonnay vs. sauvignon blanc, etc.  Just ask!  Start the conversation and see what answers you get!

And a wonderful online wine source: Vinfolio

And for all you lovers of wine and movies - the trailer for Bottle Shock, starring Alan Rickman and Bill Pullman.  The movie is based on the famous 1976 Paris Tasting, where a "mere" California wine beat out the French wines for the first time!
