Chicago Foodies: Wine Dinners: Austrian Wine Night
[Chicago Foodies] The dessert was an apple struedel, served with vanilla ice cream. In addition to the main meal, in absence of an Austrian cheese, seemingly impossible to find, I served a creamy Bavarian Blue and a swiss cheese called "Hoch Ybring", a granular and nutty cheese with a rind washed in white wine from cheese guru Rolf Beeler.

New York Cork Report: An Introduction to Long Island Merlot
[New York Cork Report] I left the wine dinner with two main conclusions: Namely, wine dinners at the Culinary Center come highly recommended (they hold them very often, usually with winery-specific themes), and Long Island merlot provides a diverse lineup of styles. If this small lineup is any indication, merlot can find expression in a variety of ways within Long Island.

[Blind Taste / Robin Goldstein] However, in most cases these publications accept advertising from the very firms whose products they review, raising the possibility that they bias product reviews to favor advertisers…Although the average Wine Spectator ratings earned by advertisers and non-advertisers are similar, I find that advertisers earn just less than one point higher Wine Spectator ratings than non-advertisers when I use Wine Advocate ratings to adjust for differences in quality.”

Me So Hungry - FOOD BLOG! » Trader Joe's Cabernet Beef Pot Roast
[Me So Hungry - FOOD BLOG!] Then layered the bottom of the crock pot with sliced onions (I hear this is good so the meat isn’t directly touching the surface of the crock pot and it avoids it from sitting in the fat while it cooks). Dropped in the pot roast and surrounded it by potatoes and carrots and added a 1/2 cup of water.

TRAVESSIA Winery Blog: 2008 Trapeze Pinot Noir
[TRAVESSIA Winery Blog] At the winery we try to educate people that not all grapes are suited to be grown in every region and that certainly Southeastern Massachusetts is not a region where red grapes can be grown with the needed quality for a red wine, for sure not consistently year after year.
