WINES OF SUBSTANCE - Periodic Table of Wines
Each bottle has its own ‘element’ symbol ie:
Ch = Chardonnay
Re = Riesling
Pg = Pinot Gris
The website is annoying (I hate flash) but the packaging is so ultra clever, I don’t care. #wine #wino

- Dad: YES, what do you think is more important?
Inspired by the mighty Sequoia, the Wine Tree by Kendall LeCompte is for the true wine connoisseur. Experts differ in opinion on how one should store wine but you can’t go wrong with this. Just look how elegant and compact it is. The smaller version holds 10 bottles and the bigger one takes 17. Not a wino? There’s a mini version too that holds 7 bottles.

Twitter Venturing into the Libations Business
For a good cause, nonetheless. The new wine label is called @fledgling and proceeds will go towards Room to Read, which serves to build educational infrastructure in developing countries.
“The Fledgling Initiative embodies two things that are at the core of Twitter’s mission: providing access to information and highlighting the power of open communication to bring about positive change…Because if you can’t read you can’t Tweet! ” - Biz Stone & Evan Williams (Twitter Founders)

Clos Torribas - Pinord - Tempranillo - Crianza - Espanha - 2005
# 9.0 R$ 26.00 (promoção. normalmente deve ser mais caro)
Delicioso!!! Ele é feito de 90% Tempranillo e 10% Cabernet. É um pouco mais forte que um Cabernet, oferecendo momentos incríveis de paladar da segunda taça em diante. Não se julgue logo na primeira. Tem perfume forte, aparentando ter teor alcoólico forte, mesmo com seus 12%. É meu primeiro Tempranillo, então não arriscaria uma descrição muito detalhada.
Altamente recomendado… me parece no ponto ideal. Quero mais…
