 [erie.effusion] COUNTDOWN TO FRIDAY THE 13th....: Buzz Gallery will be hosting a wine tasting / fine food feast this Friday for folks to bid on auction items to help fund the gallery a few more months. We are pleased to pair with Greg Mason of Dux and Euro Vin Imports for this outstanding opportunity to support a local space and local art. Buzz has recently loss a few members without much notice to take up the slack and recruit new blood into the fold to survive.

 [Turn the Screw] Another treasure from the Languedoc: . I had only tasted this wine once before at a private tasting with importer Neal Rosenthal (ouch! just hurt my toe dropping names). Seriously though, I was invited to a tasting where Mr. Rosenthal was talking about the wines that he imports. Given the set-up and the number of wines we went through, I had no idea how long the bottles has been open before the wine got into my glass. As a general rule, even if I am really excited about a wine (such as this) I won't sell it until I have had a chance to sit with the wine and see how it performs over the course of a few hours. As far as Mr. Rosenthal goes, that is another post altogether. One that will be forthcoming soon.

 [Grab Your Fork - foodie blog of photos and restaurant reviews from around the world] Tetsuya's, Sydney: As you bit into each shiny firm globule, the trout roe burst their briney goodness all over your dancing tongue. According to the waiter these were unpasteurised, meaning they were milked fresh from Australian trout (all imported caviar must be pasteurised). Another highlight.

[Vinography.com] Vinography: a wine blog: 2003 Chateau La Roque Pic Saint Loup Rose ...: Frequent readers will know that I have a bit of a thing for wines of the Languedoc, but mostly I concentrate my explorations to the dark earthy reds that are so unique to the area. I came across this wine recently, though, and because it was summer and I was looking for a few nice wines that might go well with some Latin or Asian foods, I had to give it a try.

[Spittoon.biz] Spittoon - wine news and tasting notes.: Food and wine bloggers from anywhere are welcome, along with friends who do not get bored talking about wine/food/blogs/internet/eating/cookshops/food-shopping. Grab a blanket (that's to sit on, not to keep warm; although judging by the weather as I write this a brolly may be needed!), make some delicious picnic foods to share, and wander passed the corporate tents to a quieter part of the river bank for an informal gathering.

[Wineanorak.com] The wine anorak: one of the UK's leading wine sites, with wine ...: Welcome to the wine anorak, one of the most interesting and comprehensive wine resources on the web. Please take some time to look around, and drop by often for the regular updates—and don't forget to check out my blog, a personal commentary on the world of wine.

[Purplesunshine.com] PurpleSunshine.com :: blog: That being said, I will keep going to the Chaddsford tasting room, because their wine classes are really fun (and it's about 3 blocks from my apartment). Last week's class was South American wines, focusing on Chile and Argentina. I really liked a 1999 Catena Malbec, LunLunta Vineyards in the Mendoza region of Argentina - gave it a 14.5. It "smelled fantastic, with tobacco and vanilla tones, nice finish." I also recommend a 2000 Luis Felipe Edwards Chardonnay from the Colchagua region of Chile.
