My friends Justin (aka The Chubby Vegetarian, which doesn't really fit since he isn't chubby) & Amy invited Kelly & I over for dinner Tuesday night. Whenever we dine at Chez TCV its always unique, always interesting & always super delicious. After an exhausting day at the store Justin could tell I needed a stiff drink so he immediately offered me a glass of Pappy Van Winkle 15 year old Single Barrel Bourbon. This heavenly Kentucky elixir was brimming with notes of brown sugar, vanilla, clove & smoke. Perfect to take the day's edge off. After we finished our Bourbon I popped a bottle of Seven Hills Rielsing 2008 Columbia Valley (suggested retail $14.99). This racy, bright riesling is a blend from Evergreen, Willard & Snipes Vineyards. At 11% alcohol is light, lithe & refreshing on the palate. Its crisp & clean with electric acidity that was perfect as an aperitif.
While we sipped on this tasty little riesling Justin worked on his pumpkin gnocchi.

Michael,
In one month we will be launching wineclubzone.com. We will be launching a blog network and featuring top quality blogs like yours. Our main goal is to index all the wine clubs nationwide both online and offline, and let the bloggers discuss them on our forum.
We wanted to see if you would be interested in joining the network. Here would be the benefits:
1) We would use your site feed and feed in the first 200 characters of your post and link back to you as a means of driving traffic to your site.
2) We will link you from our main blog page.
In return we will ask for a 125X125 widget on the sidebar of your blog.
Let us know if this is something you would be interested in.
Thanks,
Brandon Schrey
