If you love red wines, enjoy French cuisine, like taking a relaxing stroll through the countryside and appreciate meeting lots of friendly locals; Southern France is for you!



Languedoc, in the southern end of France is where you will find calm rolling meadows and lush hillsides and is also the largest wine growing region in the world. One vineyard there, Ch?teau Bousquette is a 50 acre estate where you will find organically grown wine at its finest. This simple family estate, nestled amongst the pines with scents of lavender, rosemary and thyme is refreshing in itself but once you taste the wine produced here you know why it's the finest in the world. The view is breathtaking as you overlook the miles of vineyards, stretching all the way to the foot of the C?vennes mountains. Get wine online from this French vineyard at French Wine Online.



Languedoc is Wine Country: Home to Some of Frances' Top Red Wines



Languedoc is recognized as one of the three largest AOC (Appellation d'Origine Contr?l?e: the top grade of French quality wine) zones in France, sharing this distinction with the likes of Bordeaux and C?tes du Rh?ne. This famous French wine country will awe you with its series of gentle hills and valleys covered in vineyards, fields and forests. Little towns with history and character greet you from around many hills and valleys. Peaceful walking paths take you through vineyards and hills; expansive views replenish the soul while you take a drink of the great red wines produced here. The rich, fertile soil yields the famous wines you have always heard about organically and of course the fine grapes being organically grown produce robust and aromatic wines you can taste for yourself even without traveling there by visiting French Wine Online.

Temperature, humidity, lighting conditions and movement play important roles for wines to mature properly. Wines need to be kept in a safe place if they are to be stored for any amount of time. And there is no other way of storing wines safely other than investing in a wine rack.

While choosing a wine rack it is to be remembered that the rack should store the wine the right way. Another important decision to make is the size of the rack - whether you want to store a few bottles or hundreds. There are lots of varieties and designs to choose from.

Horizontal wine racks are the best among all the choices available. Vertical wine racks are not a good option for storing wine. In vertical racks the cork will dry out and eventually shrink, causing air to come in contact with the wine and your wine will be ruined. Vertical racks are useful for short term storage for wines that are intended to be consumed young. Tilted racks will either leave the cork dry or deposit sediments near the cork. Horizontal racks are the best, as the cork remains moist and swelled preventing your wine from unwanted air contact. Sediment falls on the side of the bottle, far away from the cork to prevent spoilage when pouring. It is also cost effective, the design is simple and more racks can be added with ease.

Wine racks can be of metal or wood, placed on the floor or hang from ceilings. If metal is your choice then you can opt for Wine Tower, Lily Wall, Echelon, Wine Lounge or choose from Calistoga Wine Hanger or Climbing Tendril. Wooden wine racks have the advantage of adding extra storage space as and when you add to your wine collection. Wooden racks are usually constructed of maple, cedar and mahogany that have strength, hardness and visual appeal. Choose from Rectangular Bin, Diamond Bin, Waterfall Individual Rack or the Curved Corner Rack. For the more creative ones you can order your own wooden kit. The kit includes bolts, wrench and wooden racks machined with pre-drilled holes that can be installed in no time at all.

Wine racks come in various sizes. From small wine racks that can hold one or two bottles to those that can hold thousands. Small or medium sized racks work fine for your home collection while for commercial purposes large sized racks are required. Depending on your choice, wine racks can cost anything between $20 and $1000.

3 Generations of Tanners

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 03:44:35 -0800
I strolled down Main Street to the Tanner tasting room dragging some wine with me. In retrospect that probably wasn’t the best idea as my wine case only got heavier after I left Tanner. I walked up to Tanner to find 3 generations of Tanners at the tasting room. Grandma, daughter, and granddaughter. Apparently, on a regular day, I would have found 4 generations there with a great granddaughter usually in attendance as well! I’m afraid to report that I neglected to take pictures at Tanner. I

Ridge 2005 Three Valleys Red - Red Wine

Sat, 15 Nov 2008 09:24:31 -0800
Red Wine by Ridge from Sonoma County, California. Three Valleys is the Ridge proprietary name for its only wine blended from multiple vineyard sites. To make it, we select softer, more accessible lots from our single vineyards, combining them to create the character we think will be most appealing. Younger vines on the Lytton Springs Vineyards in Dry Creek Valley provided roughly half the fruit; a third came from Geyserville, Mazzoni, and Stone Ranch Vineyards in Alexander Valley; the balance

Grapevine Travelers Fall Grand Tasting

Sat, 15 Nov 2008 02:47:00 -0800
Last weekend, I led a group of the North Shore Winers to a Fall Grand Wine Tasting at Grapevine Travelers in Medford. Like previous Grand Tastings, there were fourteen vendors, which include one beer vendor and one cognac vendor. With so many wines available for tasting, I was not able to taste all of them. But I will list my favorites, by distributor, from those I did taste.Adonna Imports: One of my favorite Italian wine importers, they always have some excellent wines at local tastings.--2006

Cuvee Cuvee

Fri, 14 Nov 2008 05:10:05 -0800
I picked the Ortman Family Vineyards 2006 Cuvee Eddy as the wine for the evening. I purchased this bottle from Domaine547. It now costs $16.99, originally $21.99, though I can’t remember what I paid for it. I bought it in one of my searches for interesting new wines that Jill helped me with. It clocked in at 14.3% alcohol by volume, hails from San Luis Obispo, and had a real cork closure. The blend is 44% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 15% Petite Sirah, 9% Mourvedre, and 2% Viognier. Right there you

Well, finally back to blogging. After an intense weekend at the Wine Bloggers Conference, followed by four full days of running around Sonoma and Napa - and Fairfield, and Berkeley and San Francisco - and then returning to a new position at the newspaper in Quebec City, and mulling over about twenty different potential post subjects, I finally managed to focus long enough on one subject.

Newsome-Harlow currently produces 750 cases, but intends to up their production to 2700 next year. The tasting room is modern and cute, and resides on Main Street in Murphys. One of the nice parts about Murphys’ wineries is that many of them have space on Main Street, so you can just wander around downtown, stop into a tasti
