Wood Wine Cabinets?Welcome To The Club!


When we first leave the nest and head off to start that great adventure known as adulthood, a set of lavish wood wine cabinets are not even practical because it isn?t even legal for us to drink yet. However, even if were late bloomers and did not leave until we were over 21, there are still a lot of furniture purchases that need to be made before we can realistically think about a wine rack?let alone a beautiful cabinet. However, as we age and advance in our careers, our tastes and bank accounts hopefully mature. Whereas we might have had some fun at parties listening to loud music and perhaps even drinking beer, there comes a point when we start to appreciate the finer things in life.

Premium wood wine cabinets are not just about storage. After all, wine racks are certainly less expensive and serve the same primary function. However, whereas a wine rack provides little to no security against the curiosity of young children, you can use beautiful wood wine racks to keep the children out of things until they reach a more appropriate age. Typical wine racks just seem to present too much temptation sometimes for the intense curiosity and adventurous spirit of childhood.

However, even if the children are grown or have reached ages when such concerns are unwarranted, you will still want to consider shopping for wood wine cabinets for one very simple but important reason?they are simply gorgeous!! There are a number of materials to choose from when looking for lavish wood wine cabinets including oak and even cherry wood. These ornate and highly refined pieces of furniture provide far more than simple wine storage?they literally add a very distinct and stylish decorative element to any space in your home.

So, as you have graduated into adulthood and now find yourself truly enjoying some of the finer things in life (you know, all those crazy ?fuddy duddy? things that our parents did!), isn?t it time you took your wine storage above the stage of a simple rack sitting atop your counter? Lavish wood wine cabinets not only hold your bottles and corkscrew, they are also a great place to store your favorite classes and other accessories. Luxurious wood wine cabinets are the perfect accessories that mark your ascension into the club that is adulthood!

Choosing The Perfect Holiday Wine


Oh my God, it?s almost Christmas and I have guests coming, one is a real wine connoisseur and if I don?t have JUST the right wine, I know I?ll never hear the end about it.

Exactly what wine do I serve with turkey; I haven?t a clue, not to mention the ham, or an after dinner wine. Should I stick with my old standby Pinot, or break out the Chardonnay? Wait, he?ll just think that?s run of the mill, I know I?ll open a bottle of Gruner Veltliner, surely that will impress him.

While you may not have had exactly these thoughts, if you plan on serving wine with dinner, the choices sometimes can be daunting, but the answer is rather simple, go for the middle road. If you?ll planning on serving a sumptuous feast, then set out some white and red wine, so your guests will have a choice. If you?re interested in going a step further, then a specific wine that compliments your entrees would be a wise decision.

In the dark still? Don?t worry, I?ll offer a few suggestions that will get the juices flowing, or the bubbly sparkling. Since these are the holidays and most of us are in a festive mode, Champagne is an excellent choice to serve with appetizers like mixed nuts, cheeses or salty snacks.

FACTOID: La M?thode Champenoise, is the original way of making Champagne and is more than 260 years old. Champagne, the wine that sparkles, can be served at the beginning of a meal, or at any time, it is very versatile.

Hopefully you?ll be among friends over the holiday, if so a bit of experimentation might be the perfect answer. As you shop the wine stores, many will offer tasting and advice, ?listen and heed well oh student?, for these shop keepers are more than likely connoisseurs themselves and want you to come back, don?t be afraid to tell them your budget.

How much wine will you (and hopefully your guests) consume over the holiday season? If more than a bottle or two, consider buying by the case you?ll find discounts from 10 to 15 percent, and that can add up. Too much wine for your budget? Talk to family, friends and neighbors, maybe the costs can be shared, lowering everyone?s (per bottle) expense.

Since this article is about wine and food for the holidays, when you shop, look for food friendly wines. There are many that suit the bill (just ask) some good choices might be:

Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc

Beaujolais from France,

Pinot Noir,

Chianti from Italy,

and Rioja from Spain

Now then... how much wine is Uncle Joe going to drink? We don?t want him teetering, so plan on about two glasses per guest with the ratio being approximately (and tailor to your taste and budget) 60 percent white and 40 percent red.

When all is said and done and the guests are out the door, or snoring quietly (we hope) in their rooms, just push the cork back into the bottle and place the bottle in the fridge. Plan on consuming it over the next 3 to 5 days and you?ll be in good spirits (ah, I mean shape).

Have a great time, a good meal, and remember not to drink and drive.

Merryvale - Carneros Chardonnay


This Chardonnay was carefully crafted from the cool Carneros viticulture area. This was the first time Merryvale worked with grapes from the Sangiacomo Vineyards which is on the Sonoma side of Carneros. We found this Chardonnay to be really fat and oaky, but more vanillian than wood. It is a big wine with a round, long finish. "Complex and concentrated, with ripe pear, peach, fig and nectarine flavors that are bright, rich and lively. Drink now. 4,250 cases made." MCCW01 MCCW01
