I'm here to remind you that wine aerators are a big scam: www.vinography.com/2021/03/wine...
Wine Aerators: $336.9 Million Worth of Bullsh*t
It's practically criminal that these plastic pieces of junk continue to be purchased. They prey on insecurity, are bad for the planet, and generally just suck.

Tasting through more than 50 California Rieslings this afternoon - my deepest dive into the category ever - and very impressed with a number of wines. People are figuring this grape out.

My weekly sip through a bunch of press samples last week was all about fine Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from both California and Oregon. There are some spectacular bottles here to recommend. www.vinography.com/2... #winethreads

The cellar at Weingut Wittmann in Germany's Rheinhessen region is filled with the big old casks that help Riesling become the best version of itself.

America’s relationship with wine is fraught and often split along the lines of gender, educational status, political affiliation, and economic status. It’s no wonder wine appreciation is so misunderstood. Great piece. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/21/d...

No matter how many times I’ve had it it’s always been phenomenal. Including tonight-my last bottle-with one of my dearest friends in the world. I firmly believe 1995 Musar to be one of the world’s greatest bottles of wine.

Good heavens, I haven't had a Friday where I've needed a glass of wine more in many weeks. Thankfully, I had an open bottle of 2024 Kutch Wines Mindego Ridge Pinot Noir gassed in the fridge, and it is now sailing me into the weekend with glory.
