Two Bees Wine: October 2006
http://twobeeswine.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 25, 2006. A headline in the Napa Register announces astronomical yields of cab and syrah this year. In part, it’s traceable to a cold front a few weeks ago that stalled the rise in brix levels and pushed hang time and harvest. I suspect an updated census of the vines would also account for the bounty. Another summer, the scruffy blueberry farm that sent out annual berries are here! The vineyards, my subdivisions, encroach. This sprawl of golden, green, and red every October beckons...

Random Winer: January 2010
http://randomwiner.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 19, 2010. I was inspired to write about cheese after reading a post by Shana Ray, (a poster on Twitter and Facebook) who asked the question: “Which is your favorite: Beer, Wine or Cheese? 8221; I had to laugh at the responses, especially by one poster who asked “isn’t this the holy trinity? 8221; Certainly, one could argue that Beer and Scotch (one of my other favorites) are one in the same; and could be included in this gastronomic trinity, but I digress.

Random Winer: La Bouteille Mystère - Don't trust the French?
http://randomwiner.blogspot.com/2010/03/la-bouteille-mystere-dont-trust-french.html
Thursday, March 18, 2010. La Bouteille Mystère - Don't trust the French? First off, I want to thank my friend Eric (an expat from France) and wine shop owner of Rouge Wine Cellar and Gifts. Illinois for the inspiration and contribution to this post! Eric was recently given this bottle of wine that he became very excited about even though he had no intention of ever opening it. The following are bits and pieces quoted from Eric along with some of my own observations. To the best of our knowledge, Bordeaux...

Two Bees Wine: September 2006
http://twobeeswine.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 29, 2006. We brought our science project inside. The nights have cooled considerably, dropping into the 40s. The energy of fermentation defies the weather to some extent; our grape juice has held around the mid 60 degree mark. The goal is for the sugar levels to drop to slightly below zero (from their original highs of almost 30). If this fails to occur, fermentation sticks , and will require the addition of a new strain of yeast to kick-start, then finish off, fermentation. To rally th...

Two Bees Wine: November 2006
http://twobeeswine.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 21, 2006. It started me thinking about my favorite wine (probably because my blog entry was overdue and I was captive and agendaless). If I had to choose, which varietal would I have Daniel record? I’m inclined to name pinot noir for its soft fruit, flexibility with food, drinkability solo, and for aromas that deliver the same pleasure that Jolly Ranchers did when I was a kid the more I inhale or taste, the greater the bursts in intensity. May suffocate my initial response. The wineries...
