December 2007 Archives

December 20, 2007

Hello to the Moribund, Neglected Wine Blog!

Here's a combination that will put the kibosh on the wine blogging: write a book, edit a book, take on two new jobs, and tear the back off of your house!

We've been drinking wine, but lots of unremarkable cheap-and-cheerful reliable bottles that we don't need to memorialize here. Plus the kitchen in our rental apartment doesn't inspire a lot of cooking, so we don't have that impetus.

We have been toying with some Priorats, but we don't really have a handle on them yet. They're funky, which is surprising, since they're 100% granache, so it's not blending ... anyway, more on that later.

Happily, we are getting a case of Navarro Vineyards wine for Christmas from my wonderful sister-in-law and brother-in-law, and our quarterly wine club shipments from Preston Vineyards continue. So we'll have things to write about.

And we move back in late February, so there will be lots of cooking and wine drinking in the new kitchen!
