Amelia Island Summer Redux
Let’s take a look at what has happened to our wine suggestions for the summer. I like to look back to check their reliability and validity.
Amelia Islanders buying BOXED WINES!?

Colder Temperatures Require Zinfandel
Now that we’re experiencing temperatures below freezing at night, it’s an opportune time to bring out the Zinfandel. This wine is best known for its intensity, lushness and, of course, its higher alcohol content.
Fall Wines
Fall is a transition time and so it is with wines. We’re not yet in the holiday season with its family gatherings and parties. How do we navigate this bridge? Why not give Beaujolais a try?
Grenache
Why is the most widely grown grape also one of the most undervalued and underestimated? Moreover, why is it rarely mentioned or seen on the shelf? I am, of course, referring to Grenache.
Holiday Wine
Riesling is an enigma. Most people think it to be a sweet wine, but it is not always sweet. These grapes do not only produce sweet, sometimes sugary sweet wines, but they can also produce dry and off dry wines, as well.
Red Wine for the Holidays
What is there left to discuss for the holidays? What about a versatile red wine? Pinot Noir fits nicely into this slot and offers a wide enough variety of styles, quality and price points. Let’s take a closer look at what’s available.
South American Wines
...I call it neglect. The truth is Chile and Argentina, along with their respective producers and suppliers, simply have not aggressively marketed their products here in the US.
Sparkling Wines
When is the best time to drink champagne or sparkling wine? My friend replied,”Any time, all the time!”
Why Malbec Wine?
Malbec, a red grape, originated in South West France, but found greater fame and a home in the New World. Say “Malbec( Mahl Beck) to a wine lover and the response is Argentina.
Wine Library
In order to be truly serious about wine one must read and own books on the subject. In this era of the Internet, I still keep to two rules: nothing can surpass a handwritten note and nothing is more useful than reading a book.
