... To help you enjoy your favorite beverage. The recent issue of the Wine Spectator published an article on making it easier to enjoy, store, serve, and just plain relax as we throw off the shoes, sit in our living room or dining room chair and let the wine do its task. The article is presented by “Dr. Vinny,” a regular contributor the Wine Spectator. I wanted to forward some of the information contained in the article to our readers in the hope that it will reduce some of the mystery and confusion about wine and maybe contribute some additional enjoyment. Credit for the article goes to Dr. Vinny and his staff.

Let’s start the New Year with a trip to Tuscany!

I know, I know. The holidays are over and we’re supposed to go back to work. But, with the possibility of a bargain rate for only a few days’ stay in Siena and some of the surrounding villages, and the strong probability that your boss is out of town until the end of the month, why not throw caution to the wind and fly to Italy!? You just might have a good time. I found a trip that will enable you to start in Siena, tour wine country for four days, and get back to the Lowcountry before anyone even knows you’ve left.
