There's always a fun story to share : Layla is off for California to start her new job. She just came back from the Basque country and from Spain where she was surfing. She had a cold and was packing and was in great spirits and eager to know more about her new home. While tasting with everyone else our wines from FRance, Sicily, Napa Valley and Washington State our customers shared some of their stories and recommendations with her for when she is there. Nice. It was a great visit and she met Veronica , too and they shared their information before leaving with their wines for the weekend! Cheers, ... Happy Sunday everyone. It's clear as the torrential rains and clouds have passed on and the sun is starting to rise higher in our baby blue skies this morning. I'm loving it! TONY

Veronica passed by the wine-tasting table as I was tasting Layla on some Washington State and Napa Valley California wine. Layla really liked the 2010 Petite Sirah Napa Valley ELYSE Winery dry red, $37.99. It was the Big-Hit on the reds with her. remember, she had a cold and it broke through and she could taste it! Veronica, down from Connecticut visiting her aunt in northwest D.C. needed a gift for her. She decided on the VALLE DELL'ACATE " Cerasuela " D.O.C.G. dry red blend of 75% Nero D'Avola and 25% Frappatto 2009, $24.99 Classico to give her aunt. She quite liked it as well as the interesting story behind it, that it was from the southeastern region of Sicily, and that by law that it had to be this blend, and that it was a traditional style, flavorful, an maturer dry red wine to leave as her " thank you " to her aunt for letting her spend the night before heading on to continue her journey, going south I believe veronica? Cheers. Thanks for stopping by. Good to chat yesterday before the skies poured forth with all their pent-up waters!.   TONY


Victoria says of the ELYSE Winery 2010 Petite Sirah from Napa Valley, $37.99 a bottle, that : " It's a really nice one. Tastes like blackberries . " She then said : " Don't you smell it? " I did. I thanked her for sharing that with Regis, me and the others tasting at the time. It's always a treat to hear what you all think of these wines, and for sharing it with others, too. Take care, happy Sunday morning September 22nd, 2013!    TONY
