Verities from wine tasting classes.
Depending on how long you’ve been swirling and spilling, there are times when you have to deal with advice offered in a wine tasting class. You can accept it as truth, reject it as myth, or wait until you have confirmation of either. Of course, I jest in the first sentence above about spilling. But I did, in fact, reject a class moderator’s claim that if you weren’t spilling it on yourself or elsewhere, then you weren’t aggressive enough, and would never unleash those otherworldly, underlying aromas and flavors.   And I also must acknowledge that I have stained fine wooden table tops, baptized exquisite handmade tablecloths and napkins, soiled irreplaceable Persian carpets, as well as adding new, semi-floral designs to my silkenTommy Bahama shirts.   Swirl vigorously folks! In large-group, multi-wine tasting classes of old, to quickly learn the basics of color, aroma and flavor, we were advised to bring our own, but correctly styled stemware. Not costly fine crystal, mind you

October Check-in
What was it like to dust off my passport? It was brilliant! From the moment I hit Delta and ran for my ritual martini I was off and flying. My mood lifted. I sprinted like a kid down the runway to the gate. And then I landed in Milan. Took a train to Parma where my travel buddy and barkeep of Tabarro, Diego Sorba picked me up. In an hour we were at his wife’s 94-year-old grandmother’s yard and Sunday lunch for 18 or so. Cinghiale and polenta for them. Polenta and leaves of lettuce for me. Reinforced and sustained, I saw some raw talent and gave his daughter and her best friend their first Morris dance class. Brilliant girls. Me and my two sweethearts. That night I jetlagged outside of Tabarro while Diego played host, putting me in the vicinity of some of his regulars. There was one fiery Romanian, one energetic heart doctor, an eccentric doctor-turned-antique peddler, and an enthusiastic x-ray technician on the eve of starting sommelier training. Soon we were at one table, drinking. Lo
