Chateau Doisy Dubroca Sauternes-Barsac 1975 Review – Vibrant
It's not every day you can crack open a 1975 Sauternes-Barsac. Truth be told, we have never had one this old before. But after finding this one tucked away at a bottle shop we frequent for a rather reasonable price, we decided to give it a go. Before even opening this one, we noticed something ... Read more

The Governor even has a pint of stout. … Continue reading "Your Thursday Beery News Notes For The Week Of The Green And The Black"

Pierre Paillard Bouzy Grand Cru Les Parcelles XXI Review
After returning home from our trip to Champagne, we, naturally, started buying more Champagne. This wasn't so much because we didn't buy a lot while there (we did), but rather that many top producers were readily available to us at home- often not for much more than we could buy them in France. So we ... Read more

When Time Slows in the Glass
There are moments when a wine feels less like a drink and more like a time capsule — a connection to place, patience, and the art of letting things evolve. The 2002 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Vergers was one of those bottles. The post When Time Slows in the Glass appeared first on DallasWineChick.com .

Well… Welcome To Your “It Is March And The Good Times Are Here Again!!!” Beery News Notes
For well over 20 years, I have lost my marbles over March arriving as it did again last Sunday. I may have created that image to the right in 2004. Such a clever boy! So well centered. Why do I love March, you ask? Not the green beer. Maybe not the green grass which might … Continue reading "Well… Welcome To Your “It Is March And The Good Times Are Here Again!!!” Beery News Notes"

(S)NO(W) JOKE
This week, Kay has been in France skiing with her husband and in-laws. They had return flights to Geneva and hired a car to drive over the border to France. There were six of them - Kay, Darcy, Darcy's parents, Darcy's sister and her boyfriend. The boyfriend is an excellent skier and has been teaching everyone else, first on the nursery slopes and then graduating to the steeper more complicated ones. Kay did some skiing in France with her school when she was about 14, but to be fair that was a long time ago, so she needed some refreshing. To start with it was good news coming in and an amazing video of Kay doing a ten-minute ski down a very steep slope. Unfortunately it coincided with the news that the US Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn had had a terrible accident doing her Olympic downhill ski-racing and was airlifted to hospital with multiple leg fractures. The next day Kay texted me to say she was having a coffee in a cafe as she had taken a few tumbles
