in Sherry Wine, is it a dying breed? on Catavino
My husband and I recently celebrated our anniversary and treated ourselves to an 8-course meal at a top U.S. restaurant (La Belle Vie). I am pleased to report that two of the courses were paired with sherries: an amontillado and Pedro Ximenez. We were pleased. Certainly not your average restaurant, but feels like there is a growing interest in sherries in our neck of the woods. I, for one, am looking forward to drinking more...

La Belle Vie is not exactly average, but it's good to see resturants such as La Belle Vie doing this, since many others look to them for inspiration! Glad you enjoyed them and I definately encourage you too seek out more examples.

I knew next to nothing about this grape before I read your informative and entertaining article. Thank you for helping me pass a quick lunch break so pleasantly. Will definitely keep an eye out for Bobal in the future.

Happy Birthday, Gab! You know I voted. MN turnout could be as high as 80% this year, which would put it at the top of the nation. Here's hoping...

in Oz Clarke’s Rant with Catavino on Catavino
Always appreciate when concerns about global warming (which are very real and not to be taken lightly) are also balanced with optimism about new opportunities. Fun post.

in How to Enjoy a nice Spanish wine on Catavino
Just made me think of a new "How to" that covers enjoying Spanish wine and remaining functional at the office. A glass of wine would certainly make my Friday afternoon in front a computer a lot more pleasant.

in Catavino is Attending the II International Conference on Climate Change and Wine on Catavino
Can't wait to hear about the conference. Glad you two are going. It is good to see the larger issue of climate change considered through different lenses--in this case, as it relates to wine.

in How to Remove Wine Stains:From Port Saturated Luggage on Catavino
I second Knut's motion, but when that is not an economically viable option, I say reach for Carbona. The stuff is magical. My friend had an entire glass of red wine spilled on him at a party I threw and we used it on the spot to deal with the mess.

in Top Five Mistakes in Serving Sherry on Catavino
This is so cool. I love the space you have dedicated to sherry! My husband and I have been enjoying drinking sherries more and more, but had very little background information beforehand and primarily drank them after a meal. I feel empowered to do some more experimenting.
Keep the information coming!
