January in the Garden
“In winter, wild places feel like being in a hushed house with a sleeper in the next room. A living stillness. It isn’t quite loneliness. More a pronounced absence.” -Jarod K. Anderson, Something in the Woods Loves You The quiet of winter has an immersive feeling; long gone are the expansive vistas of the garden.… The post January in the Garden appeared first on Brooks Wine .

The Space Between: Closing the Year Quietly, Opening the New One Gently
The days after Christmas and before the New Year exist in a strange, tender pocket of time. The rush has passed. The calendar hasn’t flipped yet. There’s less urgency, and more awareness of what we actually want to carry forward. At Wildside Winery , we’re honoring this in-between moment by softening the landing into January — creating space for quiet, reflection, and yes, a little joy. As we close out the year and prepare to step into the new one, we’re beginning January exactly how it feels...

Fuggled Beer of the Year
Ok then, the choices have been made, the runners and riders whittled down to just three beers, a pale, a BOAB, and a dark, and final decision must be taken to crown the 2025 Fuggled Beer of the Year. As in years past, and most certainly in years yet to come, the present awarding of the title comes with little fanfare, and a miserly pot of coin - i.e. no coin whatsoever. It does come, however, with the knowledge that this little part of the internet appreciates your beer and will happily drink more of it in the future. Our finalists then are: Pale: Spoolboy 10° - Selvedge Brewing, Charlottesville, VA BOAB: Altbier - Bierkeller Brewing, Columbia, SC Dark: Aecht Schlenkerla Erle - Heller-Bräu Trum, Bamberg, DE I am sure this comes as no surprise to anyone, but since Spoolboy has been available on tap at Selvedge, it has basically become my go-to beer. Pretty much whenever I walk in, the folks behind the bar know what my, and Mrs V's, first beer of the visit will be, and so fresh pin

podcast· 1h 02m· S9E5Season 9 - Episode 7 - Lumos Wine
Some people make wine. Others shape an entire wine region. In this episode of Wine Crush Podcast , we sit down with Dai Crisp and Boone McCoy-Crisp of Lumos Wine Co. , a family whose fingerprints can be found across some of Oregon’s most celebrated vineyards. For more than three decades, Dai has been a pioneer of certified organic viticulture and has managed the legendary Temperance Hill Vineyard, helping define what world-class Oregon Pinot Noir can become. Alongside his son, Boone, the next generation of the family is carrying that legacy forward through thoughtful winemaking, sustainable farming, and a deep respect for the land that has been in their family for generations. Lumos, founded in 2000 on the family’s historic Wren Vineyard, has become known for honest, site-driven wines that showcase the character of the Willamette Valley.

videoEp. 2652 Cristina Mercuri MW: Becoming Italy’s First Female Master of Wine | #openbarstevie
Welcome to #openbarstevie and Episode 2652 of the Italian Wine Podcast. It’s a casual video podcast filmed in the office, where wine people drop by, open a bottle or two, and hang out with moi! 😝 Sometimes they come alone, often in pairs or small groups. The conversation flows naturally and is not limited to wine. It touches on family, friendships, work, failures, successes, current events, and above all the Italian way of living. This is not an interview series in the traditional sense. It is closer to friends meeting at aperitivo time. Wine is the excuse, NOT the subject. The focus is on lived experience. What it really means to live and work in Italy today. The beauty, the contradictions, the chaos, the privilege, and the everyday rituals that define Italian lifestyle. 💡 Format: 30 to 45 minutes Filmed in the office with a relaxed, low-production setup 1 to 3 guests per episode Guests can be producers, communicators, importers, educators, creatives, or friend

This fruity aroma bomb meets a classic dry gin in Wajos’ Gin Rouge Mosel Dry Gin. The Red […]

The Ten - 2025's Best Sober Moments
A whole year of beer boiled down to ten spots. Just ten moments that lingered in my mind and helped get me through the last 365 days make this list and while there were a lot of low points in 2025, these beers gave light and hope to an often dreary world. It's been an adjustment talking about NA beers versus regular pints, the alcohol effect being absent makes for a whole different vibe to be sure. But the options are getting better and as the market for NA offerings grows, so should the quality. I'm here for the beer, so let's get on with this year's Sober Ten. 10. One for the Road Brewing Proceed with Caution Amber (January 26th) One of the first non-alcoholic beers that really wowed me this year, One for the Road Brewing certainly tries to deliver as close to the real thing in a whole lotta styles as anyone out there. Prolific in number, they try to find an NA offering for every taste and this nutty, toasted malt beauty hit all the marks. Lacking not
