Monday May 30 2011

Summary:

Ever wonder how those hints of green bean, bell pepper, jalapeño and celery stick got into the wine?
It’s a fascinating story of insatiable, greedy-gut pirating, Mother Nature’s grand design for consummate fertility and the vigneron’s attempt to farm for flavor. Guess who wins?
