It’s the morning of the Santa Clarita Valley Wine Classic and I’m thinking Margo should have dressed me. No, not that I should buy a decadent outfit at the store, Margo’s, for the decadence to take place in a few short hours…but that Margo should have dressed me because I’ve been over-fantasizing about being Cinderella…
The problem as I see it is that we all dream of this. The lush vines sagging under the weight of their fruit, the intimate backyard tastings, the rocky earth, the turquoise sky above a mountain, wind chimes barely making their music, the coolness of the winery, the large-bowled stemware filled to just over 1/3,…
I met SCVian Larry M. on Yelp – and you can too as he does many local reviews. When he sent me an invite to his fundraiser I just wanted to help maximize his efforts by posting it here. If you are able to attend, great, if not, tell a friend: The Cheyenne Tribe of…
I felt like I was doing a drug deal meeting Chef Mike this past Sunday at my local mall’s parking lot.

I’m Yelping now. It wasn’t my idea. It was yet another link sent to me by a reader to “increase exposure”. I’ve become the “Drudge Report on Wine” per another reader that thinks that readers that send me links are a good thing. (Thoughts? More links?) hmmmmmmmm So I went to Yelp, filled in my…
That’s really all it is, a notch above…other plastic wine glasses. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/23/garden/23goods.html?_r=3&emc=eta1 A reader sent me the link but I already had the glasses. I saw them the first time at Vino 100 Valencia. Similar in feel, and weight, to Riedel’s stemless series http://www.riedel.com/ there’s just one catch as they’re not what they boast to…
