This is my first blog on the World Wide Web, so we’ll see how it goes. The overall purpose of this blog is to talk about wine. The most controversial topic on this website should be no more than Cabernet versus Merlot versus Pinot. This isn’t politics, this isn’t religion, or any other topic that turns people into snorting, whining, overly dramatic, and just plain nasty humans. This is happiness, people! Let’s debate what makes us happier – Prosecco or Champagne.
NOTE: I’m not a Sommelier and I don’t have a Vintner’s degree. I just enjoy it. Take that with a grain of Napa dirt.
My focus will be on discussing wines that folks might see but not purchase just because they’re not as popular as some others. I’m going to present some of my opinions on good wines and what they taste like to my palette. Obviously, that the wine may taste differently to you, but gotta start somewhere, right?
Pricing will be identified in one of four categories (my opinion of pricing, not everyone’s):
Conservatively Priced (less than $15 per bottle)
Moderately Priced ($16-$30 per bottle)
Significantly Priced ($31-$75 per bottle)
Highly Priced (more than $75 per bottle)
I’m a wine-rich, yet cash-poor gal, so we’ll discuss the wines in the Highly Priced category less frequently than the others. I’d love to have folks, who have ventured into this pricing category, provide input though.
