Renee Keele 1 bottle/ 2 meals - A great value Cabernet Sauvignon from South America

It's been a busy week in the Keele household, we have all cycled through the same darn cold, and it is still lingering around in various forms.  With that being said, on Tuesday I was feeling quite good which is great because, I was about to taste a wine I newly discovered.  

I have always loved Cabernet, actually it was the first red wine I developed a…

Renee Keele 52 Tastings: Week 4 - Pork and Pinot Noir=Love

Pinot Noir is a lovely wine, one that conjures up images of rolling hills, cool breezes, and butterflies.  It is easy to drink and just as easy to fall in love with, however like most relationships it is often moody and will cost you a lot of money.  I think the grape is undoubtedly one of my mom’s and I favorites.  It is very difficult to find a good one at any price point below $20, therefore not any everyday wine for the cash strapped households.  Pinot however,…

Deborah Passin Winery of the Week: Holly's Hill Vineyards, El Dorado County

Carrie and Josh Bendick have a two-minute commute to their winery, by foot. They live in a house in the middle of their vineyard – the same house Carrie’s grandparents lived in when the vineyard was once a cattle farm.

Renee Keele 1 bottle/ 2 meals- The comfortable blanket of Syrah

I like to think of Syrah as the older sister who likes to sit by the fireplace and snuggle in to read a good book after finishing a nice bowl of stew with her family.  Shiraz on the other hand, is the younger sister who likes to watch MTV reality shows in her spare time after chowing down on pizza and wings with her boyfriend.  They are the same grape, yet so different because of the region of the world they are grown.  Syrah was born in France more specifically the Rhone region, and…

Renee Keele 1 bottle/2 meals Sauvignon Blanc

I am a seafood lover, and I often say out loud and in my head that I live in the wrong state.  My dream would be to live near the ocean where fresh seafood was at every market and at an affordable price.  Well with that aside, Sprouts recently had Dungeness crab on sale, and we decided to take the plunge in both our wallets and with our culinary…
