Provisions…Northampton, Massachusetts

February 12, 2014 Leave a Comment

Today we had the absolute pleasure of visiting Provisions in Northampton, Massachusetts.  What a fabulous store.  Really. We were in heaven.  Offering a variety of beautiful packaged food products, Provisions also has a gorgeous cheese and meat counter with a very knowledgeable cheesemonger who was more than glad to talk about the cheeses and offer […]

90+ Pinot Grigio from 90+ Cellars

July 4, 2013 Leave a Comment

When it comes to Pinot Grigio we always seem to go for our all-time favorite, Santa Margherita.  It never lets us down.  It goes with almost everything we eat in the summertime.  However… it runs between $25-29 a bottle.  And so, when you find yourself drinking a bottle (or five or six) a week….it adds up. […]

Barolo 2007 Terre di Bo

October 26, 2012 Leave a Comment

We strayed from our go to favorite bottle of red and decided to try this Barolo 2007 Terre di Bo. It cost about $20-25, but was worth it.     We found that this wine improved as it decanted.  We were drinking it with a lamb dish and found the pairing to work well.  We […]

Barons de Rothschild Reserve Speciale Bordeaux Rouge 2010

June 16, 2012 Leave a Comment

  As it is grilling season we decided that it was time for a simple meal of steak, potatoes and salad. We love Bordeaux and even have family who live there.  On my way home from the market I stopped off at Eddie’s Liquors, one of our very favorite wine stops, in Springfield, MA, and […]

Château Gravier Figeac 2006 Saint-Emillion

January 11, 2012 Leave a Comment

  This Château Gravier Figeac 2006 Saint-Emillion was not expensive ($17.99) and it showed! Whilst it was drinkable, we both agreed that it was nothing special.       It has a almost plum aroma with a lighter ruby color.   We found it a little harsh on the palate, but it did improve once […]

Louis Latour Pinot Noir 2006 & Louis Latour Marsannay 2005

August 8, 2011 Leave a Comment

  We found a great pinot noir about a month ago and are sure it is a wine most of you would love! This Louis Latour Pinot Noir 2006 is about $12.99 a bottle and is the bargain of the year.  We liked it so much we immediately went back to our local wine shop […]

White Haven Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2009

August 5, 2011 Leave a Comment

 We can’t say enough about this wine.  We never buy sauvignon blancs because they are often too “fizzy” for our liking so we tend to stick to pinot grigio.  This, however, called out to us the minute we entered our favorite wine shop.  Not only was it already cold, the paper on the label was […]

Bodega Colome Estate Malbec 2008

July 31, 2011 Leave a Comment

  This Bodega Colome Estate Malbec from 2008 is one of Wine Spectator’s Top 100 of 2010.  We paid $25.99 for this bottle.  We tend to like malbecs and this wine was recommended to us by the owner of the local wine shop we frequent.   This wine had flavors of black fruits, clove, allspice and […]
