I’m caught up in the commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks and the onset of fall, and I need a BIG red wine.
Something deep. Something dark. Something soothing. Something velvety.
There’s nothing more appropriate than The Prisoner Cabernet Sauvignon from California’s Napa Valley.
From the moment it hits the glass you’re in deep, with […]
Summer is still here, and there is nothing like a crisp, cold, white wine at the end of a sunny day to keep the warm-weather vibes alive.

We went to Sabba […]
It’s officially summer – hooray!
Sunshine and heat are returning to the area, the days are long, it’s a great time of year.
