This is the last (at least for now) in a series of articles reviewing the Kirkland wines from Costco. Previously, I reviewed the sparkling and the white wines available at my local Costco here in Houston, and today I publish … Continue reading →

The real Isabel Ferrando
There exist several wine brands which have taken on the names of historic women and in the process, grown to rather mythic status with time. Perhaps the most famous is Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin aka Veuve Clicquot. She definitely deserves a far better and more accurate film of her life someday, but her name (or at least the widowed version of it) graces one of the most iconic Champagnes there is. Then, at the other end of the spectrum there’s Anna de Codorníu from the Cava ‘Jumbotron’, Codorníu and is, a ‘different’ […] For full access, please log in or purchase a subscription.

Frantzén & Cauble Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
Vinoteket and Winefinder (a Swedish online wine shop) held a tasting with the first wines from a collaboration between three-star Michelin chef Björn Frantzén and Master Sommelier Ian Cauble. They presented 3 wines, of which I tasted two. The first was the wine that was launched at this event, their Frantzén & Cauble Cabernet Sauvignon […] Continue reading: Frantzén & Cauble Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley The post Frantzén & Cauble Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley was originally published on BKWine Magazine and written by Anders Åhlén .

The wines of Châteauneuf-du-Pape & Gigondas 2026
In the middle of April, I made my way up to the Southern Rhône for the annual reports of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas; two of the leading regions overall for this very beautiful portion of France. I won’t mince my words, the arrival was rather grim as while going a month later made for much better weather, it also allowed to see the harsh reality that is the changing face of wine consumption. There were countless vineyards that hadn’t been pruned, which, at this point in the spring means that they’re […] For full access, please log in or purchase a subscription.

Domaine de Beaurenard – Tradition Rouge 2021
The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magik came out it the later part of 1991 when I was just barely a teenager. I listened to it endlessly, the reason being that it was and continues to be a superb album. It’s amazing to look at the songs that didn’t make the original cut like “Soul to Squeeze” as they just didn’t fit in with the album as a whole, even if still good music. Rick Rubin did a fine job of massaging all the random genres that the […] For full access, please log in or purchase a subscription.
