It is perhaps the best thing I have eaten in ages. The red wine really makes this dish! I spotted a similar recipe on epicurious.com but it called for white wine which would have change the whole nature of it. I'm so glad a recent purchase of your Ash Hollow Syrah led to this variant!

I wonder if this grape was ever part of the Côt Noir? Another deep, dark in all the right ways, in my opinion, is Carménère. I wonder if this grape was ever part of the Côt Noir?

I am starting to learn more about quality wines and much of this newly discovered wine knowledge I can use as conversation material when I find myself at a party with intellectuals. I am a wine drinker, but I am not a snob nor do I have the extra income to spend over a hundred dollars. I am more inclined to buy a wine like the Reininger 2008 Mr Owl's Red.

I see a lot of people drinking wine with their Italian food but I have never really noticed a dominant one, which is better with pasta, red or white? I am a White fan myself because it seems to be more sweet.

As far as how to pronounce it and being embarrassed because you don't know how to pronounce it, I completely understand but I try to remember that even the person serving it to you had to learn how to say it at one point so ask someone the first time you have it and then your set.

Now that I am reading so much about how red wine is supposed to help you with heart health I have been looking into trying different ones. My husband likes fruity wines that are sweet and most of them that I have tried are very bitter and dry. Can you tell me what this one is like?

Last night was one of the most popular events, the burger bash, where the top chefs prepare, you guessed it, hamburgers of all kinds. But they also serve wines of all kinds. And in the news reports, they interviewed patrons who were raving about all the different wines from Chile, and other parts.

I could almost smell the scent of simmering grilled steak, the kind of aroma I have ingrained in my head from when I pass by the local shopping plaza, which has an Argentinean Steak House. This makes me wonder whether Reininger Malbec makes for a good compliment to grilled steak, like the kind of meats they prepare at that popular restaurant chain, "The Knife. If so, I think I'll ask for it next time I visit. Reading this just stimulated my appetite.

There is nothing more embarrassing than to find yourself among people you don't really know, and whom you suspect know far more about wine than you, and then you slip up and try to impress somebody by talking about wine only to make then chuckle at your pathetic attempt.
