Dunn Vineyards

"The formidable 2001 Californian Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain boasts an inky/purple color to the rim, and smells like blackberry liquer intermixed with acacia flowers. With extraordinary intensity, power, richness, and purity, it looks to be one of the greatest efforts made by Randy Dunn. Since none of the Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignons (first released in 1979) are close to full maturity, this 2001 dry red wine will probably need 8-10 years of cellaring; it should last for 3-4 decades. An interesting point of trivia is that Randy Dunn's production of approximately 4,000 cases of Napa and Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon per year has not changed since the winery's inception ... somewhat refreshing in view of the American cultural tendency to think that "bigger is better".

Wine Racks?Bring A New Focal Point To Your Kitchen

Classic wine racks just appear to be those forgotten furnishings of the kitchen area. Many of us tend to make do by simply storing the bottles of wine like most of the liquor stores?by standing them upright. However, this tends to allow the sediments and other ingredients settle to the bottom and alter the natural flavor of the wine. Therefore, one of the very practical reasons to think about adding some traditional wine racks to your kitchen is to properly store the vintage bottles for superior flavor and taste.

However, this is not the only reason to go shopping for these wine storing furnishings this holiday season. After all, why compare prices and go to all the trouble of shopping around if you merely need some simple rack to help you store bottles horizontally? Fortunately, there is a very wide variety and diversity when it comes to magnificent wine racks.

The right rack will not simply store your wine properly?it can actually be used as the focal point of your kitchen. Hand carved wine cabinets are made from hardwoods and finished in a wide variety of veneers?including oak and cherry?to truly bring some style, sophistication, and beauty to a room that is better known for its practicality.

This is especially true for the dining room itself as this room tends to be sparsely decorated and having too many open spaces along the walls?the perfect place to decorate with a beautiful wine cabinet that will positively captivate the attention of guests each and every visit!

Even placed in a den or in the living room itself, a fine wine cabinet can really add a unique element to the space and potentially become the focal point of the space. However, even simpler yet magnificent wine racks in the kitchen itself can be used with a little imagination to focus attention and captivate the imagination.

If you are tired of the same old gifts this holiday season, then try hopping online to compare prices for the best rack for your space that will both be functional and beautiful. When you find the right wine rack, it can even be used as the new focal point of the kitchen and make you the envy of friends and family alike! If you really want to go that extra mile, try shopping for some ornate wine cabinets as they can become the focal point of any room!

A Passover Lesson For the Palestinians

Mon, 21 Apr 2008 05:12:34 PDT
With Passover almost upon us, consider how this heinous behavior contrasts with our Seder ritual of spilling 10 drops of wine for the plagues visited upon our oppressors in Egypt. As Jews, we are taught that our cup of joy is reduced by the suffering of our enemies. It is a lesson that Israel’s enemies have yet to learn.
