To explore and chronicle the grape, it's many stories and it's journey from dirt to glass.

This weekend the french #winophiles will venture into Rasteau! Join us Saturday at 8 am PST on twitter.
This is just one of the beautiful wines that we tasted and paired from the region. This 2015 vintage wine was a 60/40 blend of Grenache and Mourvedre from Chateau du Trignon
We paired it with the flavors of fall and Thanksgiving. #sponsored @rhonevalleyvineyards

It's fall, but it's still getting to the 70's in Vegas so we are stretching the season with this lovely rosé from Hedges Family Estate in Red Moutain Washington.
This is a Columbia Valley AVA wine with 66% Syrah and 34% Grenache. We spent a morning chatting with Sarah Hedges Goedhart, winemaker and daughter of the owners, last July. On their site it says "where soil meets soul" and Sarah exudes this sentiment. This wine is part of their DLD line (Descendants Liegeois Dupont) on the bottle " In 1976 Anne-Marie Liegeois said goodbye to her life in Champagne France and left for the US with her husband Tom Hedges. The DLD rosé is an homage to both the Dupont and Legeois sides of her family. This wine is dedicated to her grandfather Marcel Dupont, Chevalier du Tastevin and bon-Vivant. Lover of good food and great wines." This went beautifully with lobster cakes and smoked salmon. @hedgeswine @wineyakimavalley #redmountainwine #washingtonstatewine #winewednesday #youcansipwithus

Red Wine Social from the 2019 Wine Media Conference...this 5 minutes with @firstcreekwines ... The Red Wine Social is fast and chaotic...wineries have 5 minutes to give their elevator pitch and pour, writers have 5 minutes to listen, take notes, taste, take photos AND post on social media. #liveredwinesocial #wmc19 @huntervalley @destination_nsw #somuchwinesolittletime #youcansipwithus #trytokeepup

It's International Tempranillo Day! We kicked it off early with this beautiful wine from Spain that we picked up in Washington! Valdemar Estates is a fairly new. They opened their stunning winery in Walla Walla last April, but the families roots are in Spain where Bodegas Valdemar has been making wine in Rioja since 1889!
We picked up this bottle of their 2012 Conde de Valdemar Rioja Reserva. This wine is 85% Tempranillo, 10% Graciano and 5% Garnacha. It is grown in vineyards in Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Alta (the western parts of Rioja). Spanish wines must have 12 months aging in barrel and 36 months total in order to be labeled Reserva. This wine spends 24 months in oak, 65% American Oak and 35% French Oak. This took a minute to open up. It is full with dark fruits and spice. We paired it late night with homemade chili. @bodegasvaldemar @valdemarestates #wallawalla #spanishwine #internationaltempranilloday #tempranillo #youcansipwithus #RiojaWine #Tempranilloday #winelover #wine

Between the mountain and the clouds...This was the view from Cambewarra Lookout as we made our way back from Southern Hihlands to the Shoalhaven Coast. You can see the Shoalhaven River and Mt. Coolangatta and those clouds...yep that's a little maritime influence. Tomorrow on Crushed Grape Chronicles we will give you all the details! @destination_nsw #southernhighlandswines #shoalhavencoast #ouraussiewineadventure

October was #virginiawinemonth ...oops. We were a little late but we did pop this red blend from @stonetowerwinery the other night!

I'm ready! Got my first Halloween pairing...Malbec & Twix, and the treasure chest of treats is by the door and ready!

It's been a quiet, lazy and recuperative day off. Relaxing, watching the Series with a 2018 @bonnydoonvineyard Grenache Blanc. #gonats #youcansipwithus
