      Once again the wine press is hailing the arrival of another in the long list of great vintage wines. For weeks now we have been hearing the rumblings about the 2010 Brunello's from Italy. A year ago all they could write about were the 2010 Barolo's, "these wines are to be sought out".  Later the generalization was second guessed and it turned out that only a handful or two were worth the weight of the hype.

    • VALUE WEDNESDAY - Southern Hemisphere

       

      "Goin down south with a bottle in my hand. Goin down south to drink all that I can. When we get to the border let me know.  When we get to the border here we go." It's going to be another one of those GREAR VALUE Wednesday at the Vendome Wine Bar. Great wines priced to fit everyone's wallet means you gotta be there.

    • Belgian Abbey Ales

      Brewed by monks in, you guessed it, abbeys, sometimes for profit (Chimay, Rochefort, Westmalle, Orval, Achel), but other times just for the sustainment of the abbey (Westvleteren), these ales are the ‘holiest’ in Belgium. There are four styles commonly brewed from outside consumption: abbey single, dubbel, tripel, and quadrupel. Despite being named for the relative amounts of ...

    • Belgium Ales
