The past week totally slipped away from me. I hope everyone out there is enjoying all sorts of wine, beer, spirits and food. This past week saw Shauna and I cancel our first home purchase (SF houses are expensive!), tons of studying for the Advanced portion of the Court of Master Sommelier test and my company is in the final stretch of opening our flagship store. I have tasted a few good wines this week and I'll get that post up ASAP. If you saw the previous' week "Monday Night Wine" you know that Shauna and I went to Portland. I have a report on the 4 wineries and 3 restaurants we visited.
Check out a photo montage of the wines I have tried recently. I really enjoyed all three of these wines.
I know that I have been a bad blogger the past week and I apologize. I hope no one went thirsty last week. If you did, next time you are in San Francisco I will buy you a beer.
Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris (Pinot Grigio is the same grape) have been on everyone's drinking radar for a quite a while now, but if you have not been buying your Pinots from Oregon, it is now time. This past weekend I went to Portland, Oregon for the weekend to see my Dad and step-mom for a little Labor Day weekend R & R. Since we were so close to the Willamette Valley I had to check out a few places and try a few wines. This Monday night we will visit the wines of Raptor Ridge and The Eyrie Vineyards.
