You done good. But had some terrible with the audio. It must be the video, I got a good laptop. Yo mama said, next time, let the baby pick up the wine bottles and pass them to you. She said that you have her hands and we thought one of those bottles looked like that white zindfendel that you do not want us to drink. We still like two buck chuck, but you won't let us have that either. Therefore, just send us some that pink wine. You know we like pink. Hey Reg,

I am Din' ki nesh, a food and wine writer who stumbled on to this you tube while doing research. I loved your suggestions. I am a huge fan of Viognier ('cuz it's girly--the lavender nose-thing), and I LOVE RHONE WINES because the aromas often remind me of Jamaica's red soil. Would love to see what you think of my blog: http://www.miami.com/wino-confidential-black-broke-in-bordeaux-article Do you like tinto de toro? The one I had--2005 Domino de Valdelacasa had a lot of dried herb, bittersweet chocolate and dried cherry characteristics--perfect for turkey day. Just a thought. Look forward to hearing from you. Cheers, Dinkinish Hey there!

That is the great thing about wine, one persons feast, is anothers famine. The actual Tedeschi winery is a beautiful setting, but it is difficult to grow wine quality fruit in that terroir: young volcanic soil, heat, humidity, short maturity, too much rain, too much sun. The grapes mature fast. The grapes are not strained. What other wines do you like? I am glad you enjoy Tedeschi. That is the great thing about wine, one persons feast, is anothers famine.
