Great tasting today @MazzarosMarket took home two bottles. The 2021 Rivetto Langhe Nebbiolo was an outstanding pairing with my Scottish salmon with lemon-dill cream sauce over fresh spring greens. #Cheers🍷
Helped the kids move into to their new home this weekend…putting up the 🇺🇸flag was my finishing touch. Now time to relax and enjoy some refreshment before the gang comes over to our house for a cookout.

Easy dinner tonight of sheet-pan Scottish salmon and veggies. The bright, lemon acidity of the 2020 @maggyhawk Skycrest Vineyard Chardonnay was the perfect pairing. #WineWednesday#Cheers🍷
Attended the @WineSpectator Grand Tour event in Tampa, Friday evening. Splurged on VIP tickets. Very well organized, 220 wines shown, good nibbles…was great visiting with many of the winery representatives and seeing some old friends…3 and a half hours, still not nearly enough time. Sorry no pictures from inside the event…way too busy tasting. #Cheers🥂🍷
“Baching it” so, dinner for one tonight of grilled prime ribeye, potato wedges, paired with a 2021 Piaggia Carmignano Reserva followed by #MarchMadness#EliteEight hoops and Negronis. #SaturdayVibes#Cheers🍷🥃
Nice offering from @OrinSwift just arrived today…all eight labels, vintages of “8 Years in the Desert” custom packaged in a Vin Garde Valise wine travel case. Resting quietly now in the cellar no more traveling for these guys. #Cheers🍷
Just couldn’t resist…so brought home this beautiful Borgogno three pack vertical from work today. They’re going down for a nap right now but I’m really looking forward to opening these up. Stay tuned. #FridayVibe Enjoy your weekend! #Cheers🍷
Was given some nice bell peppers by a neighbor, so put them to good use for tonight’s supper. I must say they were delicious and the 2023 Lucente Tuscana paired nicely. #Cheers🍷
Just Carolisa and me so a quiet New Year’s Eve evening at home with some caviar and a vintage sparkling Italian, followed by a dinner of grilled Cornish game hens, sweet potato casserole and roasted Brussels sprouts with balsamic vinegar and shaved Parmigiano Reggiano. The 2020 @Kosta_Browne Pommard paired nicely. #Cheers🥂

Good morning. Happy 2026! It’s Commitment Day, Bloody Mary Day, Hangover Day, Polar Bear Plunge Day and Black-Eyed Pea Day. Mom also had greens and cornbread to go with the peas. Have a great start to your new year. Pray, encourage & support. You are loved and we are Blessed. 🇺🇸
#NewYearsEve with this @HandleyCellars pinot noir from Anderson Valley. This Pommard clone gem from Mendocino County is showing aromas of Santa Rosa plum, hibiscus and graphite with tastes of black cherry, rhubarb and green olive. Enjoy the changing of year a bit later.
Been so busy, I haven’t posted any food pics this holiday but I must say that my Christmas Yorkshire pudding popovers turned out beautifully this year. #Cheers🍷
