Poll: What Wine Behavior Gets Your Goat?

In light of my last rant (forgive me, the blood was still running hot), I thought it was time for another poll.  When you are wine tasting, what is the thing that is most likely to mess up your experience? I thought of a few actions, but if yours isn’t on the list, feel free […]

Poll Results: More Wine Sickos Than Expected

The polls are closed, and there were no voting mishaps that I know of. I asked you, drinkers and readers, a little while ago—how much wine you usually buy when out wine tasting for the day.  Whether it be Napa, Anderson Valley, or Virginia….you’re taking the goods home.  Happily, I found I’m not alone in […]

Poll Reminder:Do You Have My Sickness?

Just a reminder about my poll, as I’ll be closing it on Friday. I’m trying to see if other people suffer from the same problem I have: being unable to say no to buying wine, especially when at the winery.  No matter the budget or space issues, I have to give in.  No backing away slowly.

When out on a winetasting adventure, how many bottles […]

Don’t Forget About My Drinking Poll

Don’t forget about my poll to the side there trying to find out how much my readers drink in an average week.

How many bottles of wine do you open (or have opened for you) in an average week?

none (that can’t be right!)

1-2

3-4

5-6

I’m too embarrassed to say…

So far, it looks like I’m quite a lush […]

Wine Poll Now Available: How Much Do You Partake?

I don’t know if it’s a new feature, or if I just noticed it (I’d like to think it’s the former and not the latter)….but I can now submit polls at my whimsy!  See sidebar. The first one is rather tame, getting my feet wet slowly, and  surely, ones to follow will have more kick.  […]
