Elegant White Wines of California
California produces more wine than any other state in the US. California vineyards are collectively trending towards growing more red grapes, and thus producing more red wine varieties. This means that white wines from California will be slightly harder to find as time goes on. However, the demand for elegant white wines of California will probably never diminish, so they are likely to stay on your store shelves for many years to come.
Wines of California come from varietals of white grapes. The most widely planted varietal that produces elegant white wines of California is chardonnay. This varietal grows well in coastal regions and is appealing because of its fruity flavors. The trend of chardonnay growers has been to produce a more delicate chardonnay to improve sales of the wine. French Colombard varietal is most common in inexpensive wines. Sauvignon blanc is another type of varietal that is known for its tartness. Some connoisseurs say that this varietal has a "grassy" or "herbaceous" taste.
California white wines can also be table wines. A cheap table wine known as chenin blanc is grown mostly in the flat, expansive Central Valley. Chenin blanc is also produced on the coast to vintners who want to expand their selection of varietals. This wine has a delicate taste that some would describe as refreshing. One of the most elegant white wines of California is pinot gris, also known as pinot grigio.
This wine has a fruitier taste and is considered very flavorful. Sparkling wines produced in California use similar techniques to those used in the Champagne region of France. Perfect growing conditions for these wines exist in the cooler areas of California. These wines use pinot noir and chardonnay grape varietals in their manufacture.

Times are tough out there, folks. As my hero Bob Dole would say “You know it, I know and the American people know it.” If you’re following the news, you’re probably which of your kids to eat first, and how best to cook them. I recommend barbequing because I’m a Man of the People. Everybody knows that. But the fact that life is rapidly turning into Cormac McCarthy’s most recent novel is no reason to forget that the Festivus season is upon us. Just because you’re thinking of the best way to g
Waiting and watching the world go by
Thu, 11 Dec 2008 15:07:35 -0800
Waiting and watching with the world after the attacks has been draining. I haven’t slept properly for the last week. None of the news channels here have been adequate and so I have been poring over whatever I can find on the Internet. Oh – and thank God for CNN. Reading blog after blog – it’s made me tear up and smile and nod with agreement over everything. I haven’t been able to write and have been reading silently from the sidelines. Everyone has a story, an opinion and I soak it all in. It’s
Top Chef Recap: I Don't Give a Sh*t About These People
Thu, 11 Dec 2008 14:51:54 -0800
As the herd thins, we're starting to see more personalities and cooking styles of our Top Chef contestants, which means one thing: More Fabioisms and Stefan hate. Who could resist? Maybe because he's a stronger competitor, but most likely because he's kind of an arrogant bastard, everyone in the house wants to beat Stefan. Stefan, on the other hand, wants to bed (at least kiss) Jamie. The lesbian. Oh yes, it just gets more hilarious from there. This week the chefs had to cater Gail Simons bri

I’m much better today and also less full of drugs, since I thought I might try being awake today. I even left the house for a little while. You know what’s a fun thing to do when your back hurts? Putting on socks. Very entertaining. For real. I’m very behind on everything having to do with the internet, though I’m sure I’ll catch up eventually. I may be a little afraid to look in my feed reader at this point, though. Anyway, instead of sleeping through episodes of Law & Order, I’m doing a me
12 tips to reduce stress during the holiday season
Thu, 11 Dec 2008 14:16:48 -0800
The holiday season can be stressful and chaotic for many people. Whether it is fighting through the sea of people in crowded stores, making appearances at the seemingly never-ending list of gatherings, or the financial strain on the wallet, many people feel overwhelmed and stressed out during the holidays. It is unfortunate that the season can be so stressful. The holidays are meant to be a time to celebrate family and friends - a time to come together and enjoy one another’s company. It is a t
£5 app xmas special 2008 review
Thu, 11 Dec 2008 14:15:00 -0800
Last night the 2008 £5 app xmas special was held at The Werks. £5 app is a great local event which runs every 3 months where apps and side projects are demoed. For this special, the theme was games, or “interactive fun techie stuff”. For the first half of the event, former TV presenter Aleks Krotoski, now of Guardian Online, spoke about a text game she had developed. I couldn’t make the talk however, since myself and Jerome Ribot were out the back preparing the mulled wine as Ribot sponsored t
Grocery Store Oversights
Thu, 11 Dec 2008 14:14:42 -0800
I'm an avid grocery store shopper. I actually like grocery shopping. I'm usually at my local haunt two or three times per week. Occasionally I'll cheat on my store and make a quick jaunt to another. During my dalliances I'll notice certain common items that my store is missing. Usually it's so basic that I stare at the item and think, "How does my store decide that it shouldn't carry this?" And my store isn't one of those small, big city grocery stores. It's a normal suburban grocery store. Re
