Tony's New York Trip

We've gathered a few blog posts about Tony's recent trip to New York.

First, read a great summary of Tony's tasting at Thirst Wine Merchants, located in historic Fort Greene, Brooklyn.  Michael Yarmark has been a Coturri fan for years and the tasting at the shop he co-owns was phenomenal (it went on for almost three extra hours!).

Next, we have Tony's appearance at the Jenny & Francois Fall Preview.  The first article, from McDuff's Food and Wine Trail, gives a great overview of the entire event, reviewing nearly all the wines present.  (Tony's review is near the middle of the entry, under the heading "It Wasn't an All French Affair.")  This entry is part two, so if you'd like to read about all the wines, check out the first part as well.

The final article, from Karen Ulrich's blog Imbibe New York, focuses on Coturri wines, highlighting each wine that was at the Jenny & Francois Fall Preview.  Karen offers great tasting notes and great comments on the event as a whole.

Wine and Politics

Check out this article from the Richmond Times-Dispatch.  The article discusses legislation that is before the House regarding alcohol shipping laws.  A very interesting issue that could have an immense impact on Coturri Winery.

How To Buy Wine

Sometimes in life, you do need an instruction manual. We have all been guilty of going into a wineshop and buying something based on a pretty label or the "buy 6 and get a cool carrier" sale. Consider this a helpful "how to" for wine shopping.
