A bluebird Sunday afternoon after sooo many days of snow and cold weather in NJ is an opportunity to open nice Chianti Classico for cheese and salami snack.
It was a sunny, relatively warm (42F) day in snowy NJ so we took 5 mile stroll to to our favorite wine store for my Valentine to pick a wine for dinner.
Wineries around the world are struggling so I can help by adding these beautiful wines to my cellar direct from Panzano, Toscana. Grazie mille, Francesco
What to do on two home-bound snow days? So glad that I have some new wines in store but 6 wines in 2 days will be a challeng, even for a WineGuy!
